There error seems pretty clear to me:
                                                         
JRMountPt: A problem was found with the mount point specified                   
                                                                                
Action: The problem found depends on the return code received with this
reason  code.                      
 o If the return code is ENOENT, the pathname specified could not be found. 
 o If the return code is ENOTDIR, the pathname did not specify a directory.  
 o If the return code is EINVAL, either the pathname specified refers to the 
 root of an already mounted file system.  Or, in the case of a sysplex, the 
 file system may be already mounted on another system in the sysplex or
 there  may be conflicting BPXPRMxx statements for the root.               
           


/ekm is not a directory or mount point that comes with z/OS.  If that is where
you are mounting it, you need to create that mount point (which I assume
someone did for z/OS 1.7).    Also, assuming you have a read only root 
you'll need to create the mount point on a service  root (/service/ekm for 
example) and IPL.
