We are in the process of implementing the Payment Card Industry Data 
Security Standards and in an effort to cover everything and not be obliged 
to look at each instance in a one-off we are curious how other sysplex 
implementations were done.  We would like to understand if we can approach 
this as virtually a single system image with the appropriate obfuscation, 
data and network access controls or if it gets more complicated than that. 
  We're running a single zOS sysplex that hosts all our workload and we'd 
like to keep it that way.  We've read the PCI-DSS standard documentation 
and were impressed by how much they leave open to interpretation and we 
have read the atsec doc on large system implementations. 

 What has been the experience of the people here?   Thank you for your 
help, maybe we can offer an idea or two of our own that might be useful.
