There are probably outstanding failed persistent connections to the CF that you need to delete. Use the command
d xcf,cf,cfname=CF2 to get a list of structures that XCF thinks is allocated on that CF. Then you can use the command d xcf,str,strname=<strname> to get a list of connections to that structure. There will probably be some that are marked failed persistent. These are what are preventing the change. Optionally, depending on what release of z/OS you're running, you can issue the command d xcf,str,status=polchg assuming you've tried activating a new policy that doesn't contain the CF. You can use the command setxcf force,connection,strname=<strname>,conname=<connectionname> Obviously, be very careful you're forcing the correct connections. Once all the structures have been deallocated to the CF from an XCF point of view, you should be able to remove that CF via a CFRM policy update. That should work; we have to go through that process on the test floor once or twice a month.

We prepared A new CFRM policy containing the new 2097 definition on the two CF lpars, CF2 and CF3. Now, after the migration we have CF3 defined on 2097 with active structures, but CF2 has still definitions of the old structures and remained pending with its 2094 definition and with "NO SYSTEMS CONNECTED to this CF" How can we CLEANUP the remaining Structures in CF2 so that the new 2097 difinition will take place so that we will be able to use the CF ??
