Here is what I do.
In SYSTEM CONFIG file I have these statements.
System_Identifier 2094 09A123 ZVMHOME
System_Identifier 2817 09B123 ZVMDR
/**********************************************************************/
/* IMBED -SYSTEM- SYSTEM */
IMBED -SYSTEM- SYSTEM
/**********************************************************************/
Then I have two files on CF1
ZVMHOME SYSTEM <==== All of the system config statements for my home
system
ZVMDR SYSTEM <==== All of the system config statements for my D/R
system
This technique requires you to know some things about the D/R system like
the CPUID etc. you can use the different names throught the system to decide
if you are at home or at a D/R sught.
