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. >>> "Edward Jaffe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 5/27/2008 2:42 PM >>> Mark Zelden wrote: > A properly configured shared file system in either a basic or parallel > sysplex. > > Have a look at the chapter on sharing file systems in a sysplex in the > UNIX System Services Planning manual.

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. -- Edward E Jaffe Phoenix Software International, Inc 5200 W Century Blvd, Suite 800 Los Angeles, CA 90045 310-338-0400 x318 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.phoenixsoftware.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ============================================================================== CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This email contains information from the sender that may be CONFIDENTIAL, LEGALLY PRIVILEGED, PROPRIETARY or otherwise protected from disclosure.
