A complete list of critical events does not exist at this time. The problem is that current automation technology consist of tools which require you create most of the event processing. While they have grown to support more event producers (e.g.WTO, CICS, SNMP, ...) and added to their tools, they still tend to deliver a limited solution set. Some of the larger set would be from IBM (e.g. GDPS products, IMS AO and CICS AO). They are specialized so they would not cover every critical event that you desire.
As for using SMS messages, you could consider a more robust solution because you are a small shop. Each of the automation products recommends how they think it should be setup. One of the best solutions I've seen is not mainframe specific, resides on a PC and comes from a small company..A few important features are: schedules, accept / decline incident, remote actions, SMS / voice / Email and alternate contact methods. Note that with more features, you willl spend more time customizing and maintaining..
