Hello All,

I am trying to understand if it is possible to set up NJE definition between two MVS(within the same subnet) guest running on the same VM machine SYS D ?

Also, Is it possible to set NJE definition between a MVS guest and Z/OS LPAR in a different SYSPLEX ?

Could someone please suggest me your thoughts on the above.

Peter

By 'NJE definition', do you mean a network connection? You can create an NJE connection between any two MAS members as long as they're not members of the same JES2 node. Matters not whether one or both nodes are VM guests. Nor does 'subnet' matter.

It would seem to me that using TCP/IP would be the easiest way to make this NJE connection happen (again as long as they are not in the same MAS). Assuming each MVS image has an IP address that can be accessed from the other MVS image, then it is just a matter of defining the needed NJE NETSERVs, SOCKETs, and LINEs in JES2.
If you do not have TCP/IP for some reason, and you are 2 guests on the same VM image, you can use virtual CTC adapters in VM to set up a BSC connection between the 2 guest images. This is a bit old fashion, but it still works and is probably the easiest NJE to set up (assuming you understand the VM commands to couple the virtual CTCs).
You can look in the JES2 initialization and tuning guide for more information or there is a SHARE presentation that could help:

Hello,

Yes, the two MVS guest are coupled with CTC's
