What I want to do is run a z/OS 2.2 system as a CMC. Currently, there is no connection between my z/OS 2.2 system and the z/OS 1.4 systems. My concern is whether the z/OS 1.4 systems will be able to communicate with the z/OS 2.2 system across CTCs. Or if it would be better to attempt to run the communication across EE. All of these system are in the same physical CEC.
