Hello,

some more activites which cross my mind are :

- batch processing

- installing patches/support packages/notes and kernel upgrades

- spool processing

- reorganization of logfiles and SM21

Sometimes Database activites like backups/consistency checks etc. or

operating system activites are involved, depending on the structure

of the IT department in the company.

Hope this helps.

Kr,

Andreas
