Interoperability with IBM Host Systems

With Windows 2000 Professional, you can remotely configure and manage computers that are running SNA Server by using SNA Server Manager. SNA Server Manager is a graphical MMC snap-in that supports simultaneous monitoring, diagnosis, and management of SNA Server resources and services, including the following:

• SNA Server subdomains

• Computers

• Configurations

• Link services

• Connections

• LUs

• Sessions

• Services

• Users

SNA Server Manager integrates the administration of all services that are provided by SNA Server, including TN3270 Service, TN5250 Service, Host Print Service, Shared Folders Gateway Service, and Host Security Integration.

With SNA Server Manager, you can view all computers that are running SNA Server in an SNA Server subdomain and also manage multiple subdomains at the same time. This allows for central configuration and administration of all SNA Server resources throughout an enterprise network.

SNA Server Manager can run on any computer that is running Windows 2000 Professional and that is configured with SNA Server Client.

Note

SNA Server also provides a command-line management interface that allows you to store and use configuration commands in command files. For more information about command-line management functions, see SNA Server version 4.0 Help and the Microsoft BackOffice Resource Kit .
