I had to dig into the doc to investigate some of the parameters you're asking about. Some thoughts:
-- You do NOT want to use multiple COUPLExx members across the sysplex. Some of the parameters must be consistent across the plex. If you introduce multiple COUPLExx members, it's only a matter of time until a change is made for one system that is not carried over to other systems. I don't know what effect that might have, but you don't want Level 2 to have to figure out what went wrong. CLEANUP(nn) for example is specified in COUPLExx. Different values would mean different COUPLExx members. A risk. -- Even parameters that CAN be different across the sysplex should not be changed just because it's possible. Do you have a strong reason for wanting different values for INTERVAL or OPNOTIFY? However you set them, I don't see in the doc any compelling argument for implementing differences. You can use weighting values in the SFM policy to give priority to beloved cows at the expense of chickens and goats. You still have a single policy across the sysplex. . .

I understand that INTERVAL can be set different for each system in the plex after you enable USER INTERVAL on the Functions statement . I would be interested to know if you have any thoughts against setting up different values for CLEANUP on systems within a sysplex . Btw , we are on z/os 2.1 and are planning to implement SSD on all systems within the plex .
