Is it possible you could use dynamic XCF in place of the current
channel-to-channel definitions?
In any case you should mention in what sort of VTAM definitions your channel
addresses appear, TRLEs or CTCA or MPC, in support of the SNA or IP
components of CS.
Also with something as apparently complicated as this, a diagram or two
might help.[1]
Note that I'm tackling this at the level of CS/VTAM. I know nothing of any
"hardware" tricks that may solve the problem for you - although anyone
tackling this at the "hardware" level might appreciate those diagrams.[1]

given diagrams it needed some software I couldn't find to display them.

Subject: Duplicate CTC addresses
Hi to all. Does anybody know if it is possible to define duplicate ctc
addresses
to a DR LPAR?
I have two processors and can define duplicate LPARs to each of them, so
that each CPC has LPARS A to E defined to it. CPC 1 has LPARS A and B
running normally on it and CPC 2 has LPARs C D and E. IF I have a problem
with CPC 1, I would like to IPL LPARs A and B on CPC2, but without having
to
change my VTAM definitions to match the new range of CTC addresses. Could
I generate the same CTC addresses from C,D,E to A nd B regardless of which
CPC the LPAR is running on? Maybe the LPARS A and B could be detached from
CPC 2 in the normal gen, but in the event of a problem, would I be able to
dynamically detach LPARs A and B from CPC 1 and attach them to CPC2 so
that the same CTC addresses would be valid?
Assume there is enough memory and processing power to handle all LPARs on
any CPC.
Otherwise is there any other method of handling this problem?
