If you look at the Share presentations in Seattle I presented on moving a 
Datacenter (2 sysplexes ) and how we did it.  If you look at that I'd be happy 
to discuss any questions that arise. My windows were only the time it took for 
replication to go consistent and then the times to IPL and verify.

you just aren't going fast enough.

Thanks for the information. Do you remember how long your outage was? 
We're being told (using one solution) that the outage will be on the 
order of two hours.
