Communications Server for Linux operation

 

The Communications Server for Linux control daemon is started with the sna start command. Depending on the options selected at installation, it may already be running.

The xsnaadmin utility controls Communications Server for Linux resources.

Logging and tracing are controlled from here. Log and trace files can be found in the /var/opt/sna directory. The logging files sna.aud and sna.err can be read using a standard editor such as vi.

In order to read the sna1.trc trace file, first format it by running the command:

snatrcfmt -f sna1.trc -o sna1

This produces an sna1.dmp file, which can be read using a normal editor. The sna2.trc trace file can be processed in the same way.

It is possible to edit the configuration file, but this is not a recommended method of configuring Communications Server for Linux.

The APPCLLU environment variable must be set before starting a sender channel from the Linux system. The command can be either entered interactively or added to the logon profile. Depending on the level of Bourne shell or Korn shell program being used, the command is:

export APPCLLU=Local LU name    5   newer level

or

APPCLLU=Local LU name           5   older level
export
