A supported MQ Batch trigger monitor for ZOS

There are supported IMS and CICS MQ trigger monitors but there is no supported program for Batch.

Support pack MA10 MA1O: IBM WebSphere MQ - REXX Application Trigger Monitor for TSO    is a Category 2 SupportPac 

Support pack MA12 is retired.

Having a supported batch trigger monitor would greatly increase adoption and simplify usage of MQ on mainframe

    agree this is a deficit on the zOS platform.    IBM should provide CICS,  IMS, BATCH, and USS trigger monitors.   Since triggering is a standard function in MQ,  IBM should provide a standard triggering function as part of the base product.    Years ago, in a different company, I used MQ12 as a model for the CICCS trigger monitor I wrote.
