  • Subject: Qsysopr message program.
  • From: "Chris Beck" <CBeck@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
  • Date: Fri, 03 Aug 2001 09:08:33 -0500

I have a CL program that monitors Qsysopr for certain messages, then emails the 
appropriate person that the message should go to .  

The problem I have is that on one machine we take it down to a restricted state 
for its nightly backups.  Then when the machine starts back up, it starts the 
message program.  Then it reads all messages in qsysopr that it has not read 
before, and sends out the emails from machine startup.    I don't want to 
recieve all the past messages, I would like the program to start, but not read 
any of the past messages and only new ones that come in.   I don't wan't to 
monitor for all the startup messages, because then when they are sent another 
time I won't recieve them.      

Any suggestions? 


Here is a sample of how the program works. 

LOOP:       RCVMSG     MSGQ(QSYS/QSYSOPR) WAIT(*MAX) RMV(*NO) +    
                         MSG(&MSG) MSGDTA(&MSGDTA) MSGID(&MSGID) + 
                         MSGF(&MSGF) MSGFLIB(&MSGFLIB)       

    /* MESSAGES TO IGNORE */                                  
             IF         COND(&MSGID = 'CP13710') THEN(GOTO +  
                          CMDLBL(LOOP))                       
             IF         COND(&MSGID = 'CPC1236') THEN(GOTO +  
                          CMDLBL(LOOP))                    

   /* FORMAT THE SUBJECT */
 IF         COND(&MSGID = '       ') THEN(CHGVAR +    
             VAR(&EMSGID) VALUE('GSSASDEV-MESSAGE')) 
ELSE       CMD(CHGVAR VAR(&EMSGID) +                 
             VALUE('GSSASDEV-MSG ID:' *BCAT &MSGID))      

  /* EMAIL THE MESSAGE */
SNDDST     TYPE(*LMSG) TOINTNET(('xyz@GOOD-SAM.COM') 
             ('abc@GOOD-SAM.COM' *CC)) DSTD(&EMSGID) 
             LONGMSG(&MSG)                             

GOTO LOOP
