I was stuck on a sev 1 outage yesterday so I didn't have time to respond
fully.
Below is and example of how I've always NFS mounted my MVS files to
z/OS Unix in order to keep them in EBCDIC. Of course my HLQ needs
to be exported in the NFS server:
/* rexx */
/* mounts my userid MVS files to the nfs1 dir */
/* PDSes look like DIRs, seq files look like regular files */
Address TSO
"MOUNT FILESYSTEM(NFS_ZELD) TYPE(NFS)" ,
"MOUNTPOINT('/u/myusrid/nfs1') " ,
"PARM('HOSTNAME:""MYHLQ,text"",xlat(Y)') "
Does this work for you?
