Introduction to SNAplus2
SNAplus2 Administration
• Using command-line utilities, you can filter trace files to extract or
interpret specific information or to produce a summary of message
flows. The resulting output files can be viewed using a standard
ASCII text editor such as vi.
• SNAplus2 can generate alerts and send them to the NetView
program at a host computer. These alerts can be any of the following:
• Link alerts from connectivity components, to provide information
about connection problems
• 3270 user alerts from the emulation program
• Alerts supplied by an application program using the MS API
Refer to the HP-UX SNAplus2 Diagnostics Guide for information about
SNAplus2 log messages, using SNAplus2 trace facilities, and
interpreting trace files.
For information about using the MS API, refer to the HP-UX SNAplus2
MS Programmers Guide.
Simple Network Management Protocol Support
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an
industry-standard management protocol. SNAplus2 includes an SNMP
subagent to provide support for the APPN Management Information
Base (MIB) database maintained by AIX.
For a more detailed discussion of SNMP and for a list of the APPN MIB
objects that are supported by the SNAplus2 SNMP subagent, see
Appendix B, “APPN Network Management Using the Simple Network
Management Protocol.”
