If I read your code correctly, usernm is the name of the Linux guest? You may have to specify the filepool name explicitly, if it is different from your default filepool, or no default is set. That is, the userid you're running your exec in may not have vmsysu: set as its default filepool.
Type q filepool current to see if the default is set and what it is. But the safest way to code the access command in your exec is to use both the filepool name and top-level directory name so that there is no question of what you're accessing: 'ACCESS VMSYSU':'userid()'.'username'. K' (assuming that the filespace belongs to the userid in which the exec is running.)
