Running Multiple Instances of the PowerExchange Agent

You can run multiple instances of the PowerExchange Agent simultaneously on a single MVS system. For example, you may want to run separate instances for your test and production environments. Ideally, you should create a separate test and production environment and use a different PowerExchange Agent for each environment.

Use the following rules and guidelines when you run multiple instances of the PowerExchange Agent:

A PowerExchange Agent can only use one PowerExchange repository.

Multiple PowerExchange Agents can share the same PowerExchange repository.

The Batch VSAM ECCR status specified in AGENTCTL parameters affects all PowerExchange Agents on a single MVS system. If you activate or deactivate the Batch VSAM ECCR for one PowerExchange Agent, the status changes for all PowerExchange Agents on the same MVS system.

The AgentID specified in the AGENCTL parameters is defined as an MVS subsystem. To use the same AgentID for different PowerExchange Agents, each PowerExchange Agent must reside on a different MVS system.
