Call that with a parm of a taskname and the return code tells you the status. Much neater. My PHB drives IMS with Mainview and insists on doing D A,taskname checking which drives me nuts everytime I go into SDSF SYSLOG because of all this crap that gets generated. He knows about ASTRA and I am sure Mainview could use it but .... we've always done it that way.
