  • CONTROLLING THE STATE OF DUPLEXING OF COUPLING FACILITY STRUCTURES
    Publication number: 20110191625
    Abstract: A coupling facility is coupled to one or more other coupling facilities via one or more peer links. The coupling of the facilities enables various functions to be supported, including the duplexing of structures of the coupling facilities. Duplexing is performed on a structure basis, and thus, a coupling facility may include duplexed structures, as well as non-duplexed or simplexed structures.
