<----- snip -----> as I wrote, you actually CAN mantain your CFRM couple datasets, with your policy, provided that your policy comprises both primary and DR CF; what you need to have for DR purposes only, is an empty and initialized XCF COUPLE dataset (easy to do once.... and to forget) and a PARMLIB COUPLExx member, to be used in DR situations.
...snip ... I was hoping to use the existing COUPLE dataset and the existing policy. Since these datasets will be PPRC "mirrored" I was hoping to find a way to not maintain 2 separate policy definitions so that the day-to-day policy definitions would be automatically used at the DR location. ...snip ... <----- snip -----> You could try the following: If you do not mirror the primary XCF couple dataset you could dedicate a volume for it and use the same dataset name and volser in the DR site (the volume - and so the primary XCF dataset - is not mirrored). That way you can use even the same COUPLExx.
