NSN0008 is just a message we created to be used with a pager program.

                                                             System:   S1029043
 Message ID . . . . . . . . . :   NSN0008
 Message file . . . . . . . . :   NIMSGF
   Library  . . . . . . . . . :     QSYSMOD
 Message text . . . . . . . . :   &1 TCP NETWORK Connection not responding



From the Old Taatools,   (Undoubtably new also) there is a Command called
WRKSYSACT, this goes to an outfile that can be read by an RPG or CL program and
again sent to QSYSOPR.
