Sunny, CSE itself is not a product. It’s part of z/VM. Chapter 10 of CP Planning and Administration describes the requirements and capabilities of CSE. RSCS is required if you’re using DirMaint to maintain a single source directory for the cluster, and you don’t enable cross-system SPOOL. PVM is required if you use cross-system SPOOL. Chapter 5 of the Directory Maintenance Facility Tailoring and Administration Guide discusses directory sharing in more detail.
We use the XLINK feature of CSE, but not the other parts. We have VM:Secure, so I wrote code to keep Linux guest directory entries in sync. The rest of the directory is separate for each system.
