These's another system value, QINACTMSGQ. If you put the name of a user 
message queue in it, the system will send message CPI1126 when the 
inactivity time limit expires instead of disconnecting or ending the job. 
You can write a fairly simple CL break handling program to monitor the 
queue and do whatever you like. Both the device name and user ID can be 
retrieved from the message data, which consists of the qualified job name 
(job number, user ID, device name).
