Re: how can we do it?
We had a similar requirement and wrote a Health Check that sends an alert (with some other additional checking).

Why not a periodic D ,L,CN=(ALL)R ? Use REXX to parse the result.

If you don't have an automation package then check out www.cbttape.org flie 974 for TSSO (there are other files but this looks the most up to date) Lionel B.

Tony We have a console automation product that will do that as well as send an email alert if the message stays in answered for a period of time. Call me Kenneth A.

how can we do it?
My boss wants something is doable. He wants: "I want a notification if there is a 'white message' that has stayed on the console longer than 5 minutes." We had a problem where an unresolved outstanding message was on the console for a bit because the operator was occupied elsewhere. So, he wants to know if something has not been corrected within a reasonable time frame. We don't use a third-party console product because we are currently happy with sysrexx as our console automation tool. I am not sure were to start with this. Since it has to handle any outstanding message, it can't be driven by message number (like most sysrexx stuff) so I need to drive it based on the WTO descriptor code, but I don't know if that is possible with SysRexx. And, then I somehow need to intercept the "un-stick" DOM macro call. -- Tony Thigpen -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
