falls into the 'stupid, duplicate, bug infested' category, at least in the current implementation, in my opinion. Reasons:
1. IBM clearly promotes the CFSIZER to check structure sizes and to define the signalling structures in the sizes as recommended by the CFSIZER. That what that application is for. Input parms to the sizer are 'number of systems' and 'classlen'. I have religiously followed the recommendations from the sizer, and at IPL XCF has always assured me that my configuration has full signalling connectivity. 2. This check takes a completely different approach: It uses the maxsystem value (see above) from the sysplex CDS and then screams that the signalling structures are not big enough to accomodate the arbitrary value from the syspelx CDS (and I would bet that at least 50% of installations have maxsystem set to 8, because that is the default). The check does NOT care how many systems there are in a sysplex. 3. Once ALLOWAUTOALTER is turned on in the cfrm policy for signalling structures, the alter process arbitrarily destroys full signalling connectivity by severely rearranging the number of lists. IBM refuses to treat this as a bug, so we turned autoalter off to retain full connectivity. Barbara Nitz -- Der GMX SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen!
