That is a minor benefit.  The big benefit is having all the logs for the sysplex
combined in one place when trying to diagnose a problem.   There is still
a 9 system sysplex here that doesn't use it because they couldn't afford
the extra CF activity in their DB2 data sharing environment.  But that
decision goes back to 9672 CFs.  I don't think it would have been an 
issue with the z900-100 CFs and it certainly wouldn't be an issue today
with z9 CFs.   Just haven't gotten around to it yet.  Anyway... trying to look 
back at problems in that sysplex can be a real PITA to say the least if
you don't know what system to start looking on.
