I think you meant zFS. The answer is yes, assuming by "connecting device"
you meant any device equipped with a Web browser. That could include an
iPad, for example.

Some of you may have missed it, but z/OS 2.2 includes the IBM Knowledge
Center for z/OS to address many use cases, including the use cases
involving lack of a connection to the public Internet (e.g. disaster
recovery scenarios). The IBM Knowledge Center for z/OS is a standard,
included, supported feature of the base z/OS operating system. I recommend
you enable it.

You will need IBM Softcopy Librarian Version 5.0 or higher (Version 5.1
recommended and current at this writing) to work with the IBM Knowledge
Center for z/OS effectively. IBM Softcopy Librarian is available here:

http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=4&uid=swg27018846

You can configure and run the IBM Knowledge Center for z/OS on any z/OS 2.2
LPAR or z/VM guest, even if you have prior releases of z/OS still running.
You can load your IBM Knowledge Center for z/OS instance(s) with whatever
Knowledge Center documentation collections you wish, now including those
you load from a local or LAN drive in addition to those you load from the
Internet. You can even require RACF (SAF) authentication and authorization,
and log access attempts, to your IBM Knowledge Center for z/OS for whatever
reason(s) you wish. My understanding is you can even add your own local
documentation, annotations, etc. And, perhaps best of all, you can stop
worrying about whether everybody has the current documentation because you
still have your own central but private repository, always as current as
you wish it to be for everybody in your organization.
