A method and a system to emulate a mainframe data channel for testing and diagnostics of mainframe peripheral devices and for remote control and configuration of the testing and diagnostics. The system includes an emulator central processing unit communicably attached to at least one of the mainframe peripheral devices. First driver software is resident in the emulator central processing unit to initialize and start an adaptor for at least one mainframe peripheral device. Second channel program software is resident in the emulator central processing unit having commands to the emulator central processing unit and to the mainframe peripheral devices. Third application software is resident in the emulator central processing unit to test and diagnose the mainframe peripheral devices. Fourth software resident in the emulator central processing unit validates remote access to the emulator central processing unit. |
