Title: (Paraphrase problem in a single statement)Need CICSPLEX support in z/VSE

Detailed Problem Description: (Description of what you want changed - 400 character entry limit)

 

Different AOR CICS' should be able to balance telnet calls with a product like CICSPLEX.  It is possible to accomplish this with hardware balancing through a firewall that sends to two different CICS', however, if a CICS is down, the hardware continues to send the telent request to the "downed" CICS.  CICSPLEX in a z/VSE environment would reroute the request to the active CICS.
