RE: What messages do you monitor for?

[Steve Morrison <smorrison@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you create outq QSYSMSG, the messages that IBM has defined as critical
are copied to that message queue as well as to the QSYSOPR message queue.
But _only_ critical messages are placed in QSYSMSG, such as hardware failure
warnings and notifications.

We implemented a program from TAATOOLS that monitors the QSYSMSG queue, and
sends a break message to a predefined list of people. When I get time, I
plan to extend that to send email messages, so that we can get these
notifications away from our terminal sessions.

I meant specific messages. Like for example to prevent a disaster. Important
warnings.

beyond the grave were monitored.

???

I'm mismembering details, but there is a special message queue... Yes,
search the archives for QSYSMSG.
