Can OMVSUSR2 be the user associated with the ZFS started task?

#1 - IIRC, the volume in the ICH408I message for a _VSAM_ data set is the 
volume name that the _catalog_ is on in which the VSAM data set is catalogued. 
Not the volume name of the volume upon which the VSAM data set exists.

#2 - I don't know. Double check that that both OMVS and BPXOINIT are running 
with the id of OMVSUSR1. Second, who or what is OMVSUSR2 supposed to be? The 
person doing the mount?

This is a test of the Emergency Broadcast System. If this had been an actual 
emergency, do you really think we'd stick around to tell you?
