RELATED IDEAS

CREATE A NEW CPSM USERID/SIGNON AFFINITY TYPE.

We found that affinity USERID/SIGNON in a trangroup has a limitation: if an AOR fails and has to be restarted, this type of affinity will not allow the signed on user to route another transaction to the this AOR.
'EYUWR003W -The affinity AOR APPLID (NNNNNNNN) is not available because the AOR job is different. The affinity remains.'
If we signoff, the affinity is deleted, and after that I can route my transaction to the AOR successfully.

    We have assessed this requirement. We have no current plans for this to be implemented and so this requirement is being declined at this point. The requirement will be kept in the RFE system and might be reassessed in the future. You also have an opportunity to resubmit in twelve months time if you wish it to be reconsidered then.

    There aren't specifics reasons because the users must return to the restarted Region, but.......if we have 2 WLM target Regions (R1 and R2) and R2 goes down, after R2 is restarted why 50% users can't continue working on R2? Now, they can only work in R1, right? And if R1 goes down? Or if R2 goes down newly, then 50% + 50% users can't working no more on R2?

    Thanks for raising the RFE. CPSM WLM does support a USERID/SYSTEM affinity, which might help with your scenario but you would lose the affinity to that region as it shutsdown. It sounds like you must return to the restarted region again, is that correct?

    If so, could you also provide a little more information on the nature of the affinity you have with this region that would require it to be maintained across a region restart?
