I'm currently running z/OS 1.9 with all HFS files. Our corporate center delivered my z/OS 1.11 system with all zFS format. Fine. We can address staying zFS with the upgrade I was applying an SMP usermod that copies IMS program DFAFMD0 from the RESLIB to one of our lpa libraries. The apply failed with ALLOCATION FAILED FOR SMPJHOME - IKJ56228I PATH /zs1bbase/usr/lpp/java/J5.0/ NOT IN CATALOG OR CATALOG CAN NOT BE ACCESSED. The usermod has no OMVS interaction. I added an explicit path in my apply job pointing to an alternate ROOT and the apply worked with nothing in the ELEMENT SUMMARY REPORT showing any reference to SMPJHOME. On to my real question. I tried mounting the 1.11 root on my 1.9 system. With TYPE(HFS) or TYPE(ZFS) it failed with BPXF135E RETURN CODE 00000081, REASON CODE EF096055 with is Description: Error LOCATEing an HFS-compat aggregate. Action: Ensure that the zFS file system named on the MOUNT command has the same name as the VSAM Linear Data Set (and the HFS compatibility mode
aggregate) that contains the file system. I found that the 1.11 ROOT is not cataloged in my 1.9 master, hence the mount problem. In the discussions I've followed in IBMMain on zFS I don't recall one indicating how to catalog one systems zFS linear files in another systems master catalog. I'll continue looking in the AMS manual or perhaps other DFSMS manuals but I thought I'd throw this out there. Should be simple but I haven't found it yet.
