In most cases, I would expect the root directory to be mounted read only. I would not expect the root to grow much (if any), except at a new release level of z/OS (which would mean a new zFS cluster). As long as there is sufficient space to add some new directories, you should be OK.
For example, I recently installed a new product at /usr/lpp/product. This was added as another mount point which was pointed to the product's zFS cluster. The only change to the root was the addition of the new directory to /usr/lpp. That being said, the zfsadm -aggrow (? Not sure of the exact syntax) will all dynamic growth of the zFS cluster. HTH, <snip> Is there a way to determine where space is allocated in ZFS to find which directories use the most space. Our root is low on free space and I am concerned about its ability to grow. </snip> This email including attachments may contain confidential information.
