Hi folks,

just starting to build a second channel subsystem on a z9 box.

o     I know you cannot span ESCON channels.
o     I know you can span FICON channels.

but can you span OSA channels?

Yes

What about hipersocket channels (IQD), can they connect between different Channel Subsystems?

AFAIR, yes.
Hint: launch HCD, add IQD chpid and try to define it as SPANNED. Such option (SPANNNED) is available only for channels which can be spanned.


Have been considering keeping z/OS LPARs in one CSS and the zVM/zLinux LPARs in a second CSS.

I don't see any advantage or disadvantage with such approach. Unless the systems within CSS share chpids and I/O devices, which is likely.
