Not if entire sysplex is in one box. If that is the case, SYSPLEX time is not needed. As long as all participants use the same time source, all will be well. The issue requiring an ETR is synchronization/tolerization for XCF. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of R.S.

STP (or earlier sysplex timer) is mandatory for sysplex, even for basic sysplex. For production parallel sysplex it is good idea to have standalone CF. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland ====================================================================== -- Treść tej wiadomości może zawierać informacje prawnie chronione Banku przeznaczone wyłącznie do użytku służbowego adresata.
