Robert, You could use "virtual" cpuids to create extra nodes, for instance as Rich said, POLAR2 and GRIZZLY2. You do that by adding extra lines to the SYSTEM NETID with those extra cpuids and the new node names. Then in the directory entry of the TCPIP2 userid, you set the cpuid, based on the system (POLAR or GRIZZLY) using sysaffin records.
You can then also use the POLAR2 and GRIZZLY2 in the TCPIP DATA file to point to the TCPIP2 stacks. When you want other users/servers to use those stacks, you can give them the same virtual cpuid too and they will pick up the TCPIP2 stack from the TCPIP DATA file. Ronald van der Laan
