Staggered Start Script based on Queue Count

Our 3M Computer Assisted Coding system goes down on a regular basis for updates, the Applications folks like us to Disable the Business Operations when this happens and start them back up when they page the on-call person. The Business Operations have to be started in a sequence to guarantee that all the ADT being sent it processed before we start sending everything else.

Of course, I am looking for a way to automate this process, and before I go down writing a function to EnableConfigItem, then a for loop to check the ADT queue count, before enabling the other BO's, I was wondering if someone had already done this?

What I am looking for is...

• Enable Config Item on Business Operation A
• Run Queue Count on Business Operation A to verify it is 0
• Before I run Enable Config Items on the rest of the required Business Operations B thru D.
