We have 3 LPARs configured as monoplex. One for our Production
environment, one for our Test/QA environment, and one for our
Application Development environment.

If we did do Sysplex, would we still be able to maintain that separation
between the environments? How? Does anybody have a "cookbook" on how
to go from where we are to where we should be? And how does the change
affect the way we do things? i.e. what do we need to warn our customers
about?
I've looked at a couple of Redbooks ("Merging systems into a Sysplex",
etc.) and I know there's lots of others out there.
Also, most of the stuff out there talks about parallel sysplex. What
are the differences for a Basic Sysplex? Which parts do I do differently?
And what about the non-IBM components? We run ADABAS/Natural from
Software Ag.
Thanks for any pointers you can provide.
