Completed the setup of ENF and CCI on a set of LPARs in a SYSPLEX. The LPARs are named - xxxx, yyyy, and zzzz.
The setup included both VTAM and TCP/IP connections between the systems.
After starting everything up, on one system (xxxx) I issued command: F CCITCPGW,PING,yyyy
F CCITCPGW,PING,yyyy
CAS9899I - ENTERED COMMAND: PING,yyyy
CAS9899I SYSID NOT FOUND
Following are some VTAM and TCPIP displays showing connectivity:

Multiple NODE statements for the same remote systems defining different types of connectivity.
The reason for the "SYSID NOT FOUND" message in response to a CCITCPGW PING command is because there was not an active connection via the TCPIPGW protocol. At the time the active connection was via VTAM (LU0).
Define only one NODE statement should be defined for a remote system to establish connectivity.
If multiple NODE statements for the same remote system are defined, only one will establish a connection. Generally the one that connects first. VTAM will usually win in this situation as the TCPIP environment generally is not active before VTAM.
The CCI SYSID has to be unique on each LPAR.
The VTAM and TCPIPGW connections are persistent.
