CA NetMaster has a wide range of SNA management features.
The CA consultant has been working with the migration team to examine and identify where standard CA NetMaster NM for SNA and CA NetMaster NA options can replace functions implemented with NetView REXX.
The consultant advises that an easy way to access and review the CA NetMaster NM for SNA features is to enter /SNA at any menu prompt to list the high-level shortcuts to SNA features. The shortcuts can then be used to access those features.
Black Lion Telecom has several NetView REXX procedures that were written to do APPN-related tasks. These tasks, and more, are already done by the APPN features in CA NetMaster.
Example: APPN Features
The APPN Menu enables you to display the APPN Transport Resource List, which is typical of a CA NetMaster NM for SNA display. Additional data can be displayed by pressing PF11.

A wide variety of actions can be performed against each entry. For example, entering S beside an entry opens the Node Display - TRLE panel:
Node Name ... AMF1G01Z Link Name ... PROD1 | HOST | NetID SERVRA01 (NONE) | | OpSys z/OS **END** | A11X99 | Subarea 11 | | VTAM ... 6.1.7 || | TRLE | Status ACTIV | | Desired ACTIV | AMF1G01Z | Linetyp LEASED | | Prcol MPC
Another example is to use APING to test connectivity:
