Thanks for the advice on Sizer utility. In our present case, however, new and old CECs will not be connected at the same time. An installation decision made some time ago. We are able to run our sandbox sysplex ahead of time on the new CECs but without concurrent connection on the old CECs. So far no structure has emerged as under-sized on the new hardware, but it's only a sandbox.

CFSizer (https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg3T1027062) is appropriate when you're introducing a new workload or changing a workload for an existing structure-exploiting application. Sizer (downloaded from the CFSizer alternate sizing techniques page https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg3T1025939) is what you want to use when you're upgrading a CF and you're satisfied that your existing structures are adequately sized for their current workload. The Sizer download package contains documentation describing its usage and output. Note in particular that to use Sizer there must be a point in your upgrade process when you have both up-level and down-level CFs connected to some system in the sysplex. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
