What sort of things do you want to monitor? The traditional SNA monitors
like Netview can provide connectivity monitoring remotely, and it would
be fairly easy to develop some plugins for Nagios or Hobbit to do SNA
monitoring and reporting back to the monitoring system via IP, but I
doubt there is anything out there at the moment that runs ON Linux other
than Omegamon XE which understands SNA connectivity (and even then, it's
probably going to be a very limited understanding). 

 

That said, the BMC and IBM products running on remote systems can
certainly monitor Linux SNA endpoints. There are also analysis tools
from Cisco and others that can get Netflow data on SNA traffic and
produce interesting reports on it.

We moved some SNA applications from unix servers to z/Linux. Now are
running with Communications Server for Linux, we successfuly implemented
Enterprise Extended.
But we are looking for some Network Monitor. We find some to monitor
TCPIP, but none for SNA.
Does anybody know any?
Thanks. Claudio Testore
