The information in this article applies to:

SUMMARY
=======
This article explains how to use the APPC Session Viewer utility to verify SNA
Server's LU6.2 configuration. This utility is found under the Tools menu in SNA
Server Manager. Depending on the version of SNA Server, it may be listed as APPC
Session Viewer or 3270-APPC Session Viewer.
MORE INFORMATION
================
APPC Session Viewer will simulate a LU6.2 session startup. To test the LU6.2
configuration, start the APPC Session Viewer utility and click LU-LU Test. At
the LU-LU Mode Test screen, enter the local LU alias, remote LU alias, and mode
name that you wish to test. (Newer versions of the utility have drop-down boxes
for selecting these values and may also contain a box for the server name. With
older versions of the utility, you must type the correct information into these
boxes.) Next, click Start Test.
The APPC Session Viewer will issue a MC_ALLOCATE command, which will generate a
BIND request to the mainframe or IBM AS/400. After CNOS (change number of
sessions) negotiation has finished, the MC_DEALLOCATE command will be issued,
and the results of the test will appear on the APPC Session Viewer screen. This
will verify that the LUs and mode have been configured correctly.
If the configuration is correct, the returned information will be similar to
this:
Node Name: SNASERVR, Box Name: SNASERV1
Local LU Remote LU Mode Session Limit In-Use
LOCLU REMLU SNASVCMG 2 1
LOCLU REMLU QPCSUPP 64 1
If the test does not complete successfully, please refer to the SNA Server SDK
for additional information about the error codes.
