Scott, there's an open source project called MVSDASD that provides a read only Linux device driver to flat files stored on MVS DASD; e.g., sequential z/OS datasets. It even has a page comparing it to NFS. It's web site is located here: http://www.mvsdasd.org/
Good luck. Scott Rohling wrote:
I know this topic has been done before - but you never know if something new has come to pass... The subject says it all -- We know NFS works -- but we're looking for solutions outside of NFS. A customer recently asked me about 'zFS' (which appears to come from an older reference at the IBM Haifa website).. Outside of network mounts -- is anyone aware of something that allows either z/OS to read Linux filesystems directly, or vice-a-versa? (ECKD or FCP/SAN) Thanks for any suggestions!
