Subject: Re: Sysplex timeout problems.

I was going to ask Mark how (and if) fencing works in a basic sysplex when 
Skip (very oblingingly) provided the answer that it doesn't. :-(

So, in Kens case, he will always get IXC102A. 

>A strong word of caution:

Mark, does this apply to a basic sysplex, too? Or would Ken be safe having 
automation reply to it? 

Ken, from your couplexx, it appears that you do have an SFM CDS. You will 
need to run this job to see what was defined as a policy.
//STEP1    EXEC PGM=IXCMIAPU     
//SYSPRINT DD   SYSOUT=*         
//SYSIN    DD   *                
  DATA TYPE(SFM) REPORT(YES)     

Then you need to read up on *what* is defined and what is defaulted, and 
check against the values I mentioned before and how they work together. 

EXSPAT is excessive spin parmlib member, decribed in Init&Tuna.

My word of advise is to remove the parms INTERVAL, OPNOTIFY and CLEANUP 
from your couplexx and have them default to whatever IBM thinks it should be. 
Same goes if you have an EXSPATxx parmlib member defined and active.

If this gives you the longer interval before TCPIP starts complaining, then all 
is 
fine. Otherwise you will need to 'tweak' the values for the above parms.

Best regards, Barbara
