Interconnecting TMRs

[nm9204]

I have just finished my tivoli framework exam (3.7.1) and had a question that is baffling me?

It talks about 2 sites, with TMR A and TMR B on site 1, and TMR C and TMR A on site 2 (A B / C A),
The (Q)uestion was: how would you connect all TMRs?
Can't remember all answers but one was talking about re-naming TMR A on either site (will this cause problems)

Can some give me a plan or solution to this Question!!

Q1) not an exam question, just my own thoughts!!
Also, if you had TMRs (A-B-C) and A had a 2-way connection to B and Vice-versa, and C had a 2-way connection to B and Vice-versa, Could TMR A see or update resources on TMR C, if so, then would this work with TMRs (A-B-A) as described above? please advise

Q2)
If you had a 2-way connect from TMR A to TMR B, do you have to setup a 2-way connection from TMR B to TMR A, for TMR B to talk to A.

Q3)
also, if TMR A had a 1-way connection to TMR B, could TMR B have a 1-way connection to TMR A!!

Can someone help me on this issue or point me in the right direction.

Many thanks
Nigel

Certianly if TMR-A had the same name at both sites, this could cause a problem, otherwise the Region numbers are different. Renaming one of the TMR-As would be in order here.

Q1 - Using the above scenario, if you had TMRs A, B, C, A1 and you had two way connections between all 4 then A would be able to exchange the resources A1

Q2 - When you Setup a two-way connection, both sides of the connection will be able to exchange resources.

Q3 - What is needed here is a direction of the connection.

A <-> B <-> C <-> A1 All resources could be exchanged

A -> B <-> C <- A1 B would be able to exchange resources from C and A1 & C would be able to exchange resources from B and A

Thanks,
