Dear

 We have a processor for SDM system. There are two base sysplexes in this box. 
There are two FICON  channels defined for CTC in each sysplex.

Before migrating CTC from ESCON to FICON,each sysplex used two ESCON. one ESCON 
was defined as SENDER,the other one was defined as receiver.

In this situation,if one FC fail,CTC will fail.

 Now could we define each FC as sender an receiver at same time for high 
availability?

Thanks a lot!

Point to point or switched?  Are ESCON and FICON available on the system or is 
this preparation for a new system?

Not sure what you mean about changing parameters.  I/O configuration or 
PARMLIB, VTAMLST, etc.?

Would make sure you fully understand how your CTCs are being used then plan the 
migration accordingly.  Maybe some commands like the following to get you 
started:

D U,CTC,ALLOC,devnum,nnnnn
D NET,LINES/D NET,ID=name

Hi all

  We are migrating CTC  ESCON channels to CTC  FICON  channels. 

  We want to use HCD Option 2.10 to build I/O configurations ,then we 

change some parameters to migrate CTC from ESCON to FICON.

Could you share your any experience to do it ? 

Thanks a lot!

Best Regards,

Jason Cai
