"Good Job IBM!" "'Bout Damn Time".. but also "Where's the rest (VSAM, VBS, z/OS to OMVS) ? -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Timothy Sipples Sent: Thursday, May 5, 2022 8:57 PM To: [email protected] Subject: z/OS Data Set File System (DSFS) Now Available [CAUTION: This Email is from outside the Organization. Unless you trust the sender, Don't click links or open attachments as it may be a Phishing email, which can steal your Information and compromise your Computer.] I don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but (just in case!) the PTF for APAR OA62150 is now generally available. This PTF provides support for the z/OS Data Set File System (DSFS) on z/OS 2.5. z/OS DSFS allows arbitrary z/OS UNIX System Services programs to access z/OS sequential or partitioned data sets via mount point /dsfs. The data sets must be cataloged, and data set names are case insensitive. Serialization and security are aligned with ISPF. For more information please consult the new sections in the IBM z/OS 2.5 documentation.
