Hi,
has anyone ever moved a sysplex out of z/VM to the native CEC? It seems to me
that I cant define coupling link's form the native CEC into VM. So, if I
activate a policy with new CF's on the native CEC the changes are pending and
it would not write it to the control datasets.
At the bottom line it looks to me, I have to initialize the sysplex again on
the native CEC?
Any hints?
Thanks

Werner,
Conceptually, what you want to do should be possible, but the devil is
in the details. For the sake of discussion, let's assume you have a two
LPAR sysplex where the LPARs run as VM Guests. I'll assume that you
have an internal CF running as a VM guest, and an "external" CF, running
as a native CF LPAR on the same CEC (you still with me?). The
"internal" CF under VM should theoretically be able to talk to the
"external" CF for duplex, failover, etc. Are you saying can't talk to
the "external" CF from the "internal" CF under VM? I don't know enough
about VM communication to tell you how to fix this, but it should be
possible to do this. I don't think you should have to initialize the
sysplex on the "external" CF.

Tom Conley
