It means that the z/OS client initiated the mount request on outgoing port 1062. Since only root can open ports between 0-1023, those are called 'secure ports" and anything else is referred to as "unprivileged" or "insecure" ports. Some NFS server implementations don't like mount requests coming in on unprivileged ports, since it means that some process that might not be running as root has done that. I don't recall if the z/OS NFS client can be made to only make requests on secure ports or not. If not, then you'll have to tell your NFS server to accept requests on unprivileged ports.
