Re: ZOS 1.13 2.2 2.3 in the same sysplex
Out of curiosity: what is the reason? Why to connect 3 different system levels in one sysplex? It is unsupported - we know that. It is somehow hard. It is somehow risky - we are aware about that also . Why not upgrade 1.13 system to current one and then connect it to the sysplex? Yes, upgrade require some work to do, but it is IMHO much more straightforward than connecting unsupported system to unsupported and delicate, and complex configuration. -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland == Jeśli nie jesteś adresatem tej wiadomości: - powiadom nas o tym w mailu zwrotnym (dziękujemy!), - usuń trwale tę wiadomość (i wszystkie kopie, które wydrukowałeś lub zapisałeś na dysku).

Re: ZOS 1.13 2.2 2.3 in the same sysplex
So, you just found an incompatibility in ZFS, and found a way out, luckily. It’s the other resources that are shared that are going to cause you problems. Are you a DFHSM user? How current are you on maintenance in your lpars? I will tell you for fact that if you are an HSM user, there was maintenance in V2.2/V2.3 about a year or so ago that changed the structure of the MCDS. Datasets would not recall on systems that do NOT have that maintenance, or the toleration for it.I suspect that those PTF's never got pushed down to V1.13. The reason I know this, is that there was a period of time where IBM got the hold data on the toleration PTF's wrong, and the minute the maintenance hit the first systems in the plex we had the problem. *These* are the kinds of problems you will run into. If it were me, and I think Brian Westerman probably would say the same, is to put whatever application is requiring you to keep 1.13 into its own stand-alone environment. Of course that adds to the complexity of the situation if you are sharing DASD. _ Dave Jousma AVP | Manager, Systems Engineering Fifth Third Bank | 1830 East Paris Ave, SE | MD RSCB2H | Grand Rapids, MI 49546 616.653.8429 | fax: 616.653.2717 -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List On Behalf Of R Hey Sent: Tuesday, December 17, 2019 6:59 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: ZOS 1.13 2.2 2.3 in the same sysplex **CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL** **DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails** I had build a new plex on zos 1.13, new CF, XCF CDS, SMS, RMM, RACF, Mcat, etc, with only 1 LPAR in it.

Re: ZOS 1.13 2.2 2.3 in the same sysplex
That wait state only applies due to some APAR inconsistencies which don't apply to this OP. They already have 1.13 through 2.2 running together so we can safely assume that they complied with the new function APAR issue. I don't see how they can get the wait 082 with just 1.13 and 2.3 (with 2.2 mixed in there somewhere). It's not that 2.3 didn't have any new functions, just none that would make this wait state apply. I would give it a shot, you really don't have anything to lose and so long as you do the normal system compatibility stuff (CF's etc.) you should be okay to go. Remember that the levels supported by 2.3 will be higher than 1.13, so you have to run at the levels that match between those two, but you obviously know about this as you are already running a mixed release sysplex.

Re: ZOS 1.13 2.2 2.3 in the same sysplex
If you try and add an LPAR to a sysplex without having applied the relevant coexistence maintenance, you get a 082 wait state at IPL. See description below. If you try to add a system that is not even in the compatibility matrix, I would guess the same... 082 Explanation The system entering the sysplex is removed to prevent console sysplex data corruption. The system being partitioned either requires maintenance to be installed to be able to coexist with the other systems in the sysplex, or a system already active in the sysplex requires maintenance to be installed to be able to coexist with the failing system. For example, the failing system does not have a necessary consoles compatibility APAR installed. System action The system entering the sysplex is partitioned from the sysplex and wait state X'082' is loaded on that system to prevent global console sysplex data corruption. Message IEA002I is issued to indicate which system requires maintenance to be applied and the appropriate APAR to apply.

Re: ZOS 1.13 2.2 2.3 in the same sysplex
I am not at all an expert on Sysplex compatibility. I bring to the table only the knowledge of the IBM policy and years of experience with "how things work." I think the answer is very simple: it might work and it might not. Or, more correctly, it might IPL, and if it does, then everything YOU care about might work, or on the other hand something might not work.

Add to this the H/W and CFCC levels of the different systems. While the 'newest' release of z/OS in the Sysplex will support the highest level of the CFCC level in the Sysplex, does 1.13 support it? IBM normally tests up to n-2 levels/generations of OS and H/W. Combination of older levels MAY work. If it doesn't, then you are on your own.

Not only is z/OS 1.13 not supported in the same sysplex with z/OS 2.3, I am pretty sure it won’t work. Every release has sysplex changes which often (always?) require PTFs to the prior 2 releases to participate in the same sysplex. Even if no PTFs are required, I suspect z/OS checks to see the release levels in the sysplex members and would not allow this configuration.
