The parallel sysplex disappeared when nobody wanted to pony up for the
cost of a CFL. The basic sysplex is now endangered due to the CPU cost
of running two z/OS images for no apparent benefit over "tinkering" with
WLM. I don't really mind much. I was not convinced that any type of
sysplex, in our environment, was all that much of a positive. There are
some positives for tech services in the area of better testing before
production. There really aren't any for applications or production
control that I can see.
