qsnddtaq monitoring

Most API's can be monitored by checking for the optional error data 
structure.  But IBM left that feature out of qsnddtaq.  The problem I 
am having is that I am using a remote data queue, and on occasion the 
comm is down.  Do I need to:
A)  Take the call out of RPGILE and call a separate CL program,
B)  Wrap the call to qsnddtaq around a call to QCAPCMD
C)  Any of your fine suggestions?

My goal is to:
if error
VRYCFG remote *off
dlyJOB 
VRYCFG remote *ON
DLYJOB
retry
If still error
snd email
die

'cause in this case the VRYCFG did the trick.  But that is tangential.
