I have 3 systems soon to be more sharing sysres. I use the config IMBED
-system- statement based on CPUID off it goes to the right config file.
This is a RACF system so I am sharing RACF databases. Directories are
not shared but the service zone ships off directory updates to a
synchronization machine which is a tiny bit of REXX code.
PAGE, SPOOL, WARM, CKPT are of course unique.
A few pages of procedures and all is good. CSE won't work long term
because we will be far exceeding the CSE maximums.

How close can I get to running two LPARs using the same SYSRES volume?
The System Config file supports multiple systems, and the checkpoint
and warmstart data can be different for the two systems, and the
paging and spool volumes can be specified differently for the two
systems, but I can't see a way to run two separate directories. Or....
Can two systems run off the same directory? And if so, how could you
put the directory online on the second system?
I want the directories to be logically the same on both systems
anyway, so using the same physical directory would be fine with me...
If updates could be picked up in the second system.
TCPIP can be configured using files with the system name as the file
name, so there's no conflict there.
How are other sites handling running two LPARs, and how much is really
"sharable" between the two? I feel like I'm just missing a couple of
key pieces to get this right...
