How large is the data you want to SNAP? If it's not too large you could get below the bar storage and move the data there for the SNAP. But, that's not a good solution if you are talking about megabytes of data.
Of course the solution I'm most fond of recommending is to use a modern debugger such as our TDF product. With such a solution you can display the storage in real time using an interactive debugger, or you could use our non-interactive debugger and view the collected data after the trace is complete. There are many many z/OS services that do not yet support 64-bit addresses or AMODE 64.

I have been reading up on the SNAP macro for some debugging efforts I need to accomplish, but it seems to me from RTFM that SNAP only supports 24- and 31-bit addresses for the STORAGE, LIST and STRHDR operands. Assembling a SNAP macro with "SYSSTATE ARCHLVL=2,AMODE64=YES" does not modify the size of the address fields in the SNAP parameter list, which leads me to believe that 64-bit addresses are just not supported. Am I correct in my deduction? If so, how would I go about getting the equivalent of a SNAP for storage above the 2G bar?
