Classification: Confidential I believe you are out of luck. Since these are all single-image systems, each needs the IODF activated individually. There is an option to activate an IODF "SYSPLEX WIDE", but only within the sysplex.
The 1st IODF should be activated as HW and SW. The remaining IODFs as SOFTWARE only. Don’t forget to go back and update the LOADxx members of SYS1.PARMLIB/IPLPARM to ensure things don't get regressed at the next IPL. I don't have any better news. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Jason Cai Sent: Thursday, March 17, 2022 5:44 AM To: [email protected] Subject: How to simplify IODF activation [CAUTION: This Email is from outside the Organization. Unless you trust the sender, Don’t click links or open attachments as it may be a Phishing email, which can steal your Information and compromise your Computer.] Hi all In our shop, there are more than 20 single image systems. When we want to activate a production IODF, we have to logon to these 20 systems. Could we logon to one z/OS system to submit JOBs to activate the IODF for these 20 systems. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!! Thanks a lot! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ::DISCLAIMER:: ________________________________ The contents of this e-mail and any attachment(s) are confidential and intended for the named recipient(s) only.
