Mark - It is the fm letter in use when the CMS RELEASE command was last done from the writing virtual machine for new or changed files. On disk the fm letter is meaningless while the fm number does have meaning and needs preservation. David

How can files on one minidisk have different filemode letters? B1 _and_ Z1? For that matter, how can there be a letter associated at all, since it's not being ACCESSed by CMS? I would suspect that cmsfslst is assigning arbitrary values to things, but getfattr shows the same values.
