A shared DASD cluster is a set of systems that share DASD and it can contain any combination of sysplex or non-sysplex systems. This lets you minimize the amount of deployment activity with the largest exposure to target systems. A deployment to this type of system makes the software available to all members of the shared cluster environment.
For a shared DASD cluster, the host name, defined on the FTP Locations information section, must be the URI of the contact system. You must also set up remote credentials for the contact system, because they will be used to transmit the deployment (if FTP is selected), unpackage the deployment through the remote Software Deployment Service (SDS), and to retrieve the results of the deployment through FTP.
Business Value:
Using this best practice lets you do a single deployment to multiple systems that are not part of a sysplex, including multiple sysplexes. This will minimize the amount of deployed software, while at the same time maximizing the system coverage.
