This is possible.  Note however, that you will probably get better throughput
using either VMCF or IUCV.

HI,
             For communication between users in same system,
             VMCF and IUCV facilities are the best ways, but CTCA also
             can be used.
             CTCA is used between different systems. I have VMCF and IUCV
             sample programs. I can send to you if you like.
