Thanks for the Idea, it worked great!

Chris,

send a "system being powered down" msg to qsysopr when the system is powered
down.  Then when the system is back up, send a "system is back up" msg to
qsysopr. ( each msg a diff msgid, defined in your own msgf )

Your qsysopr message pgm will then rcv the "powered down" msg and set a flag
to disable the emailing. Once the "powered up" msg is received, enable
emailing.

hth,
Steve Richter

Subject: Qsysopr message program.


>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.
