o Sysplex-wide definitions for a base or Parallel
Sysplex
o Operating system settings for consoles, CTC
connections for the multisystem base sysplex, and clock settings
The base and Parallel Sysplex customization dialogs are intended for installations that are setting up a sysplex for the first time, or merging multiple standalone systems into a base sysplex or Parallel Sysplex configuration. If you already have a base sysplex or a Parallel Sysplex, you can use the sysplex dialogs to modify your configuration. msys for Setup will format the couple data sets, create sysplex policies, and update or create parmlib members. In addition for the Parallel Sysplex, the plug-in sets up resource sharing (defines Intelligent Resource Director resources, enables catalog sharing, and defines logstreams for operlog and logrec.)
For each system in the sysplex, you can select Operating system settings, which allow you to specify software definitions for the hardware (like consoles, CTC connections for the multisystem base sysplex, and clock settings).
