Define Coupling Facility Structures
Use this panel to view the structures that have been defined for the Parallel
Sysplex. The wizard creates the following structures that you always
see in the table:
-
IXCPATH1 for sysplex signaling
-
IXCPATH2 for sysplex signaling
-
ISGLOCK for GRS star
The plug-in creates these structures based on the following input:
- For IXCPATH1 and IXCPATH2, the number of systems in the sysplex that you specify on the Specify Maximum Systems panel
-
For ISGLOCK, the number of peak resources that you define on the Define GRS Values panel
You cannot delete these structures.
You can also use the Resource Sharing for the Parallel Sysplex to define the following structures:
- WLM structure for Intelligent Resource Director
- Enhanced catalog sharing
- OPERLOG
- LOGREC
When you define these structures and reenter the Parallel Sysplex Wizard, you will see the structures listed in the summary table. You cannot delete these structures.
For any other structure, the plug-in does not calculate structure sizing.
You can add, edit, or remove any other structure definitions.
If you make changes to this panel, when you press Finish to end the
wizard, you must define the name of a new CFRM policy or update an existing
policy with the changes.
