Most of the “downtime” for IBMLINK I’ve seen discussed here has been people 
using the wrong link or some other user error. Maybe someone from IBM with the 
facts can shed some light on the ACTUAL downtime? In my entire career of 40 
years, I don’t recall it ever being unavailable when I’ve needed it.

maybe they need to practice what they preach.

Working for an outsourcer years ago we had clients that hand NO downtime 
using the sysplex as it was designed. that's what IBM sold them/us for 
100% up time, just sayin :)

workloads moved around the plex as maint was applied, lpars were moved 
to new hardware with no outage to the plex....
