System Automation's "ProcOps" functionality can be used to monitor the System Console (via HMC/SE connections), which allows for NIP messages to be observed and managed. ISQSEND and ISQCCMD are ProcOps commands to interact with remote systems before or after a "local" automation environment is established or terminated. There are some steps to take to make ProcOps prove its full value that some may be uncomfortable with, like NOT defining a NIPCON device in IODF to default to using the SYSCON, but once done, the benefits are apparent.
