Before we moved to parallel sysplex in the 90s, we had only a few real-hardware CTC devices with ragamuffin unit addresses assigned haphazardly over the years. With sysplex, we were advised by our top gun CE that shops with a greatly enlarged array of EMIF CTCs were losing control of their configuration. So we instituted a naming convention whereby each CTC unit address is constructed according to a pattern involving CEC and LPAR number. There have been some SHARE sessions on this as well as Redbook discussions. The thing is, if you want to move in this direction, you should do it from the get-go.

Is there a complete documentation on FICON CTC implementation and its potential usage / configuration for various subsystems e.g. VTAM, TCP/IP, GRS, NJE, XCF etc . we are single CPC SYSPLEX environment and just exploring where all CTCs can be used. Currently we us it only for VTAM (TRL) and IP. regards Munif ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
