BCP internal interface considerations
If you have configured SA z/OS to use the BCP internal interface for the sysplex hardware automation, each system being a member of the sysplex has its processor hardware connection activated and can issue hardware requests to the SEs of the other sysplex members.
The SA z/OS internal code routes the supported hardware commands only to a system in the sysplex with a functioning hardware interface to make sure the request can be processed successfully.
