<snip> It would help knowing what your current environment. You might get samples that aren't appropriate - that are more misleading than helpfull. </snip>
Multiple stand-alone LPARS on a single CEC (test(z/OS 1.7), production(z/OS 1.4), sandbox(z/OS 1.7)). No external communication outside of the glass house via VTAM. (Outside comm is via TCPIP). As I have stated previously, we have just implemented NJE over IP, using HIPERSOCKETS (to route jobs between LPARs) for the test and sandbox lpars. I know we can't complete this until the prod LPAR is z/OS 1.7 (expected 04/07). NJE/IP using HIPERSOCKETS will eliminate about 80 percent of the traffic. The remainder is a small amount of TSO/VTAM (mostly for sysprogs). From some more reading of the FM's, is seems that a modification of the TRL will suffice. My plan is to replace the TRL pointing to the 2216 with one pointing to the HIPERSOCKET network. Is this feasable? Any gothca's? Any help is appreciated... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
