Ok, I think this is what I'm going to do. I'll make sure that CSF is in SYSSTC. Then on LPAR1 I'll start csf. I already initialized the ckds/pkds and have defined my master keys. On LPAR2 I'll start csf using the same ckds/pkds and initialize it? Or do I just recreate the master keys for that LPAR?

It's been a long time since I've done this and the last several times all of the sharing LPARs were on seperate CECs anyway. Pehaps I can claim I was having a senior moment. :-) I should have looked at the doc in my install PDS (which also mentioned putting the CSF STC in SYSSTC).
