Dear Friends,
I am looking to scope out a possible conversion from ESCON to FICON on a Shark I manage. There are currently 4 ESCON channels EMIFed to 4 LPARs on one CPU. If this were to converted to FICON channels, approximately how many would I need? With only one CPU in the complex, can I connect the channels natively or shoulr I look at a FICON director. I don't currently use an ESCON director. I am having some troubles finding documentation which addresses the above questions. Could someone please send me a URL or some recommendations on how to scope out this conversion.
