Access thru XCF depends on whether the file-system is "sysplex-aware".  If so, 
(like a R/O HFS) then access is local unless the requesting system does not 
have DASD access. In that case, XCF to owning system is required.

The  R/O "VERSION"  ROOT FS should have local access to all sharing systems - 
the owner doesn't matter.

Exactly. There is no need whatsoever for parallel sysplex. Both zFS and 
HFS use USS file sharing support, which uses only XCF signaling and a 
couple data set ... no XES. Requests are "function shipped" to the file 
system owning system, so you get better performance on the image where 
the file system is mounted.
