Here's the JCL I used to create a 3 volume zFS dataset for the SMPNTS. //DEFINE EXEC PGM=IDCAMS //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSIN DD * DELETE SYS3.OMVS.SMPE.SMPNTS DEFINE CLUSTER (NAME(SYS3.OMVS.SMPE.SMPNTS) + CYLINDER(10001 10001) /* MOD 9 */ + STORAGECLASS(ENVRLG) + DATACLASS(LDSXV3) + LINEAR + SHAREOPTIONS(2) ) //* //CREATE EXEC PGM=IOEAGFMT,REGION=0M, //* NOTE: continuation must start beyond column 16 // PARM=('-aggregate SYS3.OMVS.SMPE.SMPNTS -compat // -size 2700270 -grow 900090') MOD9 //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=* //STDOUT DD SYSOUT=* //STDERR DD SYSOUT=*
You need to define a mountpoint (I usually do this under ISH or OMVS): Mkdir SMPNTS Then you need to mount it: //MOUNT EXEC PGM=IKJEFT1B,REGION=8M,DYNAMNBR=75 //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=* //SYSTSIN DD * MOUNT FILESYSTEM('SYS3.OMVS.SMPE.SMPNTS') + TYPE(ZFS) + MODE(RDWR) + MOUNTPOINT('/SMPNTS') Alan -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lizette Koehler Sent: Wednesday, May 07, 2008 14:18 To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: ServerPac and zFS I am getting ready to download my ServerPac from IBM. I have been asked to do it using a zFS file rather than HFS. I have done neither in the past. So I am wondering what needs to be done to create a zFS file to receive the download to z/OS. I have found past entries in the archives for HFS, but not much on zFS. Any guidance is appreciated.
