A zFS is stored in a VSAM linear data set. I found "Only extended-format 
key-sequenced data sets can be compressed." at

Subject: ZFS using zEDC hardware compression

Can a ZFS dataset be defined with the DATACLAS zEDC compression option?  I'm 
looking for a way to reduce the size of our SMPNTS datasets.
