To expand on this... yes, we are just getting to the DR test:) I have new XCF and CFRM datasets pointing to new plant id and serial number, policy but no new LOGR and WLM, using same as prod (on another machine)
defined a new policy in DR CFRM We IPLd at the other site for DR and got the following- IXC248E COUPLE DATA SET dsname ON VOLSER volser FOR typename MAY BE IN USE BY ANOTHER SYSPLEX. IXC247D REPLY U to ACCEPT USE OR D TO DENY USE OF THE COUPLE DATA SET FOR typename. to which both are replied to with U ISG379E GRS UNABLE TO CONNECT TO THE ISGLOCK STRUCTURE. VALIDATE THAT THERE IS A COUPLING FACILITY DEFINED IN THE CFRM POLICY AND THAT IT IS PHYSICALLY CONNECTED TO THE SYSTEM. ENSURE THAT THE CF IS IN THE PREFLIST FOR THE ISGLOCK STRUCTURE. CF facility is same as prod and is defined in DR CFRM CF is in PREFLIST one unusual thing is on my report for the DR CFRM it shows both the prod policy and the new DR policy but not sure why since I formatted a new CFRM The backup CTCs are in parmlib but could possibly not be connected. should I remove those?
