Agree with this. Given a recent experience I'd also very specifically also update the COUPLExx member to explicitly load the correct policy.
This is more a safety measure than anything else - I had a bad experience in just updating a CFRM policy and now am pretty gun-shy about updates like this. However we have routinely had non connected CF's in our production policies listing our DR CF's(I got bit during a development upgrade ) Jerry Whitteridge Lead Systems Programmer Safeway Inc. 925 951 4184 If you feel in control you just aren't going fast enough. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Alan Field Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2013 12:27 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: CFRM Policy with new CPU Create a CFRM policy with ALL your CFs defined, both existing and new. Change the PREFLIST to specify ALL the CFs. e.g. PREFLIST(NEW1,NEW2,OLD1,OLD2) Activate the policy. This the key step. Now no matter what combination of old and new CFs you come up on the structures will be allocated. Alan Field Technical Engineer Principal BCBS Minnesota From: "Mohamed Juma" <mmj...@yahoo.com> To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Date: 05/02/2013 14:06 Subject: CFRM Policy with new CPU Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> Hi We are in migration stage from old Z9 to zEC12 CPU, in parallel sysplex environment, regarding CFRM we referring now to two CFs, internal and external CFs. I will configure new CFRM policy referring to the new CFs. I have some doubt, that when I will IPL with the new policy with the new CPU, still it will point to the old CFRM policy, even if I define the new policy in COUPLExx member in parmlib. Any advise or recommendation will be appreciated to help me.
