Hi, This thread was very timely. I have an SFM policy and it has worked fine since I had it setup a couple years ago. Last Thursday we had a CEC outage and lost 6 of the 8 systems in this Parallel Sysplex at the same time and an ICF on the same CEC as those 6 systems. Yeah that hurt:-( Another CEC, including an ICF, and an external CF survived. We are still working with IBM to the address all the aspects of the CEC outage but we think it would have been reduced in impact or avoided if we had a recent HIPER MCL 082 (J99673 stream) installed on this 2094. The SFM Policy did not partition the dead systems out of the Sysplex without operator intervention. The remaining two systems kept running but hung up till operators manually replied. >snipped the rest This e-mail transmission contains information that is confidential and may be privileged.
