XCF works only within a sysplex.
D XCF,G tells you which groups have been created.
D XCF,G,groupname,ALL tells you who has connected to the group and how
much traffic has travelled in the group.

Hipersocket links, but as far as I know, XCF is not aware of these
links.  What/Who are the typical users of XCF signaling in a monoplex.
How would I know if they are experiencing degraded or inefficient
signaling?
