I am performing an unmount, touch and then mount. The mount is successful, but
my job still fails unless I browse /u/usr/xerox/ manually first.

that's a really easy and great option !
I use touch to create files interactively I never thought about using touch
like that !

Right. touch is a standard unix command; it officially is used for updating the
access or last modified time of a file, but it's often used sort of as a
utility command in the way IEFBR14 can be used to create a file.
So I would think a job step like:
//TOUCH EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH,PARM='SH touch -c /u/usr/xerox/tmpfile'
would force USS to go see if /u/usr/xerox/tmpfile exists, and therefore require
NFS to reestablish a full connection to the server, after you've run the
automount command. The -c option tells touch not to create a file that isn't
already there, so that should prevent any file from actually being created. I
haven't tested this, though I'm trying to get in touch with one of the NFS
folks to see if this is known/expected behavior.
Note that case matters in the PARM statement.
