This is a passive monitoring system. Unfortunately, the monitoring system is 
already been implemented on a Unix box and now there is a need to integrate
MVS applications into system. 

Now, the monitor uses a unique number (pid in Unix, ? in MVS), to identify a 
task and also to periodically check if the said task is active.
In the MVS context, the monitor uses a 'agent' program (a started task) to 
detect new tasks, getting task IDs and to verify if the tasks are running.

Thanks for all those who replied.
