How / why is LPAR2 trying to mount LPAR1's files? Do you have them defined in BPXPRMxx? That is allowed if they are mounted read only on both LPARs (which would create a SHR ENQ in SYSZDSN and not EXCL). Or is someone manually trying to mount them?
If they are "cross defined" as R/W, then it's a good thing the SYSZDSN ENQ is there to protect you, otherwise you would end up with a sync error and the HFS would be unusable until it was unmounted / remounted (not to mention possible corruption).
