Ideally when you are installing the z/OS , your root / directory structure will be like
drwxr-xr-x 20 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Dec 14 2009 . drwxr-xr-x 20 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Dec 14 2009 .. dr-xr-xr-x 2 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 May 18 2007 ... -rw------- 1 STCUSER STCGROUP 12 Jan 28 2008 .sh_history drwx------ 2 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Apr 29 2009 .ssh drwxr-xr-x 3 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Jan 28 2008 IBMshare drwxr-xr-x 6 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 May 18 2007 SYSTEM drwxr-xr-x 20 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Dec 14 2009 Service drwxr-xr-x 4 STCUSER STCGROUP 36864 Nov 23 2009 bin drwxr-xr-x 2 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Jan 23 2008 data1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 STCUSER STCGROUP 12 Nov 5 2007 dev -> $SYSNAME/dev lrwxrwxrwx 1 STCUSER STCGROUP 23 Dec 10 2007 dsi -> /mount/tl-nfs/IBMshare2 drwxr-xr-x 2 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Jan 28 2008 dsszos lrwxrwxrwx 1 STCUSER STCGROUP 12 Nov 5 2007 etc -> $SYSNAME/etc drwxr-xr-x 3 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Jan 28 2008 jdk drwxr-xr-x 3 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Jan 28 2008 jre lrwxrwxrwx 1 STCUSER STCGROUP 16 Nov 5 2007 krb5 -> etc/dce/var/krb5 drwxr-xr-x 2 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Oct 4 2007 lib drwxr-xr-x 8 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Dec 14 2009 mount drwxr-xr-x 4 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Jan 28 2008 net drwxr-xr-x 2 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 May 20 2007 opt drwxr-xr-x 4 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Nov 23 2009 samples drwxr-xr-x 3 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Jan 4 2008 smpejava lrwxrwxrwx 1 STCUSER STCGROUP 12 Nov 5 2007 tmp -> $SYSNAME/tmp drwxr-xr-x 90 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Apr 20 08:44 u drwxr-xr-x 13 STCUSER STCGROUP 8192 Jan 19 2010 usr lrwxrwxrwx 1 STCUSER STCGROUP 12 Nov 5 2007 var -> $SYSNAME/var in this $SYSNAME will be used when you are on sysplex to idetify the directory with SYSTEM name. and if you are working on single system then this is not for use. Even there are some parameter in BPXPRM which needs to be set if you are working on SYSPLEX. Hope this will help .
