Narrative:
On climb out of oma near cruise; we got a 'hydraulic Y res ovht' ECAM. I flew the airplane and the captain worked the ECAM. The ECAM directed us to turn off the engine 2 hydraulic pump as well as the ptu switch. We completed the ECAM and FM checklists; computed an irregular configuration landing distance and continued to destination. Per ECAM; we turned on the engine 2 hydraulic pump on final and landed normally. We advised maintenance and dispatch. We also asked both dispatch and ramp control (after landing) to advise the ramp personnel to not operate cargo doors until advised by maintenance and asked to have the wheels chocked. The cargo doors were opened immediately after block in and the wheels were not chocked right away. After talking with ramp control and maintenance; the captain said the ramp had been called; yet no one seemed to get the word.
