Hello,
How do you gradually roll changes to CICS, MQ and DB2 versions that change
these products' HFS dataset one system at a time?
We currently share our BPXPRMxx member between two LPARs running in Sysplex
with SYSPLEX(YES).
Our CICS guys want to upgrade the CICS version one LPAR at a time (a reasonable
request), and that means that they want to change the CICS HFS pointed to by
the /usr/lpp/cicsts/cicsts32 mount point, but only on one system.
In other words they want to do something like this:
BPXPRMxx:
MOUNT FILESYSTEM('OMVS.&CICSVER.CICS32')
MOUNTPOINT('/usr/lpp/cicsts/cicsts32')
TYPE(HFS) MODE(READ) AUTOMOVE(INCLUDE,*)
Where &CICSVER resolves to RSU1109 on SY1 LPAR and to RSU1110 on SY2 LPAR.
I don't think this is possible, but I do want to provide them the option to
roll the change one LPAR at a time, prefferably without making changes to CICS.
Is there a way where we can support that?
Regards,
Nofar Spalter
