Running multiple Log Transfer Managers

You can run multiple LTM for MVS instances in your replication system to obtain the following:

Improved performance of your replication system if you are replicating large volumes of transaction information
Access to multiple DB2 subsystems
Access to multiple DB2 data-sharing groups

For each LTM for MVS instance in your replication system, you must have uniquely named versions of some, but not all, data sets. The following tables shows which data sets must be unique, and which can be unique or shared:

**Table E-1: Unique data sets required for each LTM for MVS**
Data set description	Data set name
LTM for MVS configuration data set	hlq.JCL(LTMCNFG)
Truncation point data set	hlq.ssid.TRUNCPT
RA message data set	hlq.ssid.LTMLOG

**Table E-2: Data sets required for each LTM for MVS, shared or unique**
Data set description	Data set name
RA DB2 load library	hlq.RA.LINKLIB
DB2 table specifying which tables to replicate	creator.LTMOBJECTS
