Dear friends,

a situation which at least for me seems to be quite strange today happened:
We put some zFS datasets on a newly initialized volume. We do NOT explicitly 
put a VVDS on that volume.
We thought that this be done, when the first VSAM dataset is allocated on this 
volume and AFAIK zFS files are VSAM LDS files. But no VVDS was allocated, but 
everything seems to be normal. Is that correct and where does the system store 
the VSAM informations about this zFS?

BTW: The volume is not SMS managed. 

Can anybody clarify this surprising situation? Because I've learned that a VVDS 
is created, when the first VSAM on that volume is created.

Thanks in advance.
Kind regards.
Juergen Kehr
