When to use snaping  Installing the SYI1 utility

Appendix A: Validating Connectivity Using cicsping and snaping

What snaping does

The snaping utility opens an LU 6.2 conversation to a mainframe transaction processing region. Then, it starts the SYI1 transaction on the z/OS mainframe and sends a message to SYI1. Finally, snaping receives an “echo” response from SYI1 when it executes successfully.

If your network is configured correctly, snaping returns a short message. The last line should read:

Done.
Test complete.
