I was just reading the Share Website and came across this entry. Does any one have any additional information on this process yet?
The Sysplex Timer is Dead! -------------------------- Since the beginning of Parallel Sysplex, our installations have depended upon the IBM 9037-001 and 9037-002 Sysplex Timers to provide our sysplexes with a common time source. This technology has reached its end (withdrawn from marketing at the end of 2006), and is replaced by Server Time Protocol (STP), a new technology built into z9 and z990 servers. Does "built in" mean "simple"? (Here's a hint: NO!) Do you know when you must convert? Do you know HOW to convert? What about planning for critical recovery considerations? Come to SHARE to find out the answers - we've planned an entire day of sessions just on Server Time Protocol!
