The increasing importance of Sysplex enabled applications requires an understanding of XCF (Sysplex Services for Communication). This presentation illustrates the coding and usage of XCF services within a Sysplex enabled, multi-system application. The following topics are discussed and illustrated:
- XCF Concepts: Sysplex, Group and Member
- XCF Services: Group, Signaling and Status Monitoring
- XCF Member attributes and states
- Overview of XCF macros
- A sample application named RXC illustrates XCF concepts from the presentation -- implemented in Assembler code
The RXC system is primarily intended for z/OS systems programmers and developers of authorized software. It assumes some knowledge of assembly language programming.
