If you are looking to share filesystems across multiple z/Linux guests, and have a few $ available, then I would suggest you look at the Mainstar Provisioning Expert for Linux (PEL). It handles the sharing of the read-only file systems with ease along with providing a very nice, quick, easy to use, and supported provisioning process. It includes support for rolling updates out to multiple guests as well which you will want to do at some point.
