I used a name like "SYS1.OMVS.ROOT" cataloged to VOLSER(******) or VOLSER(&SYSR2) for years (since non-sms HFS was allowed). See this from my web site / CBT file 434: Setting Up a Shared UNIX Root File HFS http://home.flash.net/~mzelden/mvsfiles/$rootshr.txt I had to change the way we were doing things here when I implemented shared HFS. The root name (and other sysres set HFS files) must be unique for that.
