1 FICON configurations • Systems Operations (SysOps) This provides the ability to monitor and control all subsystems in a sysplex from any system in the sysplex. This includes controlled startup, controlled shutdown, and automated recovery of software resources. • Sysplex In IBM mainframe computers, a Systems Complex, commonly called a sysplex, allows multiple processors to be joined into a single unit, sharing the same sysplex name and Couple Data Sets. FICON configurations There are two types of FICON configurations that are supported using Brocade Fabric OS: switched point-to-point and cascaded topologies. Switched point-to-point A single-switch configuration is called switched point-to-point and requires that the channel is configured to use single-byte addressing. If the channel is set up for 2-byte addressing, then the cascaded configuration setup applies. FIGURE 2 Switched point-to-point FICON 6 FICON Administrator's Guide 53-1001771-01
