	Does anybody know of any products that provide a menu driven
	interface to VMS system management utilities. A customer requires
	such functionality to allow operators controlled access to the
	basic system management functions. I could write something myself
	but I do not want to re-invent the wheel. 

	Thanks in advance.

Adaptive Software has such a product; it's called Access+.  I haven't
used the product myself, but the advertising material I've got on it
makes it look pretty good.

Our system uses WordPerfect Office menus as the default interface for most
users.  I have several system management functions "canned" which operate
under special sub-menus accessible only to our staff.  WPO is sensitive
to the "CAPTIVE" flag and won't let captive users out to DCL -- so perhaps
you could do complete control if you can have a "superuser" on call to
back up the "controlled access" operators when they get in a sticky situation.

An important part of the system would be a very intellegent tape management
system.  We use Tapesys (from Software Partners.) DEC markets a version of
the same program as SLS.  Both work very well.  The entire backup can be
controlled by an account with only OPER priviledge.
