I appreciate all of the input on my question. Here is additional information that may help clarify....
We have an 8 LPAR sysplex. All are sharing a Top Secret DB. We need to add 10 more to provide IBM GDPS Hyperswap and Global mirroring. We would like these (due to political reasons) to use a shared RACF DB. These new lpars will have limited system access by users and run a reduced product set. They will function as Control systems for the Hyper swap and Mirroring functions for the sysplex. Can these 18 systems function just fine in this configuration. I understand that commands will not work between the lpars running different packages. We may be able to overcome this short coming. Any more capabilities that will be impacted. Thanks in advance for any additional insight. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Thomas Conley Sent: Thursday, July 30, 2015 11:35 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Different Security Products in a Sysplex On 7/30/2015 11:38 AM, Charles Mills wrote: > Aren't we OT from the OP's question?
