Here is an example of FCTCs with loopback on multiple machines with multiple zSeries OS, then mapped to a single DR machine.
zEC12 is production z/OS and z/VM z13s is production z/OS zBC12 is z/VSE z13 is DR machine Note, the DR machine has the same FCTCs device addresses, only the CHPids are changed.

But, developing this FCTCs without a Ficon Director or Switch is difficult at best, without HCD -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Sankaranarayanan, Vignesh Sent: Monday, February 18, 2019 12:55 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: CTC Hi Jerry, I’m no longer able to find the free version of HCM. Have used it a few years ago, inputting my IOCP and was able to view everything. When I tried to get it last year, I learned that the msi installer is available in a PDS member in z/OS.. so I installed it. But it wouldn’t let me do anything.. guess it’s just a client for the paid version of HCM. Where did the freebie go, I wonder... – Vignesh Mainframe Infrastructure On 18-Feb-2019, at 22:42, Jerry Whitteridge <jerry.whitteri...@ibm.com> wrote: To be able to make sense of CTC definitions I use HCM downloaded to the PC. Its the only graphical way to review the connections. I also use HCM to define new CTC connections. For all other HCD definitions I prefer using HCD and ISPF.
