If you have peer mode capable links you could certainly do what you propose, but it would not be adhering to high availability connectivity design. It really depends on you comfort level, your CF structures, if you're exploiting system-managed CF structure duplexing, etc., but you might be able to achieve higher availability with just a third link containing one CF from each sysplex.

My question is : Is it possible to add a second SYSPLEX, sharing the same physical ICP connections like sharing CTC connections between LPARs , like this: If the answer is positive, where can I find documentation describing the definitions for it .
