QSYSMSG is a message queue that YOU MAY CREATE.
If your OS/400 has such a message queue, certain really really SERIOUS error
messages will be copied from QSYSOPR to QSYSMSG.
Some manual some place lists which ones ... I vaguely remember the Work
Management Manual.

There's a lot of stuff that goes to QSYSOPR that we do not pay much attention
to, because we already know what that signifies & also some of us (me anyway)
have added to the junk that goes to QSYSOPR.

One of the things it captures is when someone work station is varied off due
to security ... in fact that is the most common thing it captures for us.

I have a menu of NITELY STUFF outside of our application software, from which
I do the almost every nite actions & I had set this up to make it easy for
other people to do my job when I on vacation ... initialize tape correctly
for backup, check what system is running right now, clear the job logs,
restart OS/400 if backup got botched, and I also got it checking what's in
QSYSMSG & if DSPLOG has certain categories of activity.
