A Coupling Facility Logical Partition can run on shared CPs. It does not require an ICF engine. Normally I would not recommend the use of a CP, but if you are careful not to use the CF a lot, and use DYNDISP=thin, it can be quite useful. If all the connectors to the CF are in the same CEC, then there is no real CF link hardware required. Connecting multiple CECs will require purchasing hardware CF links.

It has only one CP except when CBU is fired up. No data host at all under normal circumstances. As modestly priced as a CF might be, I don't think we could sell the idea just for the benefit of sysprogs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
