The snaping utility verifies that the LU 6.2 connections between the z/OS mainframe and the server are configured and operating correctly. Sybase recommends running snaping before you install Transaction Router Service (TRS) or DirectConnect for DB2 Access Service Library.
DirectConnect TRS or ACSLIB programs do not need to be active when you run snaping. The z/OS mainframe component of snaping, SYI1, does not use Open ServerConnect or MainframeConnect for DB2 UDB. The snaping utility only tests the SNA support between the machine where you are running DirectConnect on the LAN and the transaction processing region at the z/OS mainframe.
You can use snaping to collectively test all LU 6.2 connections defined to TRS or to test a single LU 6.2 connection.
