FYI, XCF does provide a "sysplex ID" that can be used to uniquely identify a
sysplex for the life of the sysplex. That could be used to distinguish between
two different sysplexes with the same name. A new sysplex ID is generated each
time the sysplex starts fresh.

Right, I'm not aware of a UUID for a z/OS system.
Every system in a given sysplex must have a unique name. In that sense
SysplexName.SystemName might do the trick. But ...
Sysplex names are not necessarily unique -- test sysplex or DR site could be
using the same name.

We had an internal debate about the stability of SYSNAME
That’s a good question … I hope I used the term z/OS instance and not LPAR in
my question. A z/OS instance could be run on different CECs and LPARs at
different times.
There is no canonical UUID for an instance but I think there is likely an
industry best practice that could be relied upon.

If it moves to another machine is it still the same LPAR?

We had an internal debate about the stability of SYSNAME and smfID in a

that there can be more than one system in a sysplex with the same sysname /
