SavSys21/power failure/pwrdwnsys *immed

We had a one second power failure blip that caused our system to do a pwrdwnsys
*immed with no ipl restart during an unattended GO SAVE option 21 routine.  

That wrecked my weekend.

We have a CL that runs constantly in QCTL that monitors the msg queue specified
in the system value QUPSMSGQ.  In this way we get complete control of our
system during a power failure.  We modified some CL we got from IBM Boulder for
this purpose.  It works fine.  We can send messages, ignore short power blips,
take the system down in a controlled way, etc. using this CL.

The above problem occurs because the SavSys21 ends the monitor program when it
takes the system into a restricted state even though its running in QCTL.  When
the one second power blip occurs, the system discovers that the msg queue
specified in QUPSMSGQ is NOT being monitored (true) and so causes a pwrdwnsys
*immed.

How can the UPS be monitored during a SavSys12?
