Of course, without being there I cannot KNOW for certain - I can only hope 
the operator understand what he is looking at and is conveying that 
information to me in an accurate manner - I have my doubts.  As I mentioned 
earlier, I am coming in this Sunday (when I could/should be out on the 
links!) to test this myself firsthand.

As you may have already seen in previous responses to Tom Huntington and 
Scott Lindstrom, I do have a statement in the CL program to *hold delivery 
of QSYSOPR messages (QSYSOPR also being the user profile I am logged in 
under on the console).  However I'm still not sure I understand whether that 
would apply to the device as well as the job(?).  Also, you have probably 
read that we also have a break message being sent every night via sndbrkmsg 
which as I understand it (and please correct me if I am mistaken) would not 
be inhibited by the *hold on the message queue(?).  Here again, I will find 
out for myself for certain on Sunday.  And if I get it to work then, I'm 
still going to plan on coming in next Tuesday night to oversee the process.

Lastly, prior to the second attempt I changed the console terminal 
configuration so that it no longer goes into energy saver mode.

Thanks to all for their input on this matter.  I will get back to you next 
week and let you know how I made out.

Regards,

Bob Clarke
