To split hairs.....

You don't have to create a CMS user (i.e. in the USER DIRECT or DIRMAINT)
in order to ENROLL USER (create a SFS user).

Process is:

1.  Optionally create a CMS user.
2.  Enroll the SFS user which creates the default root directory.
3.  Optionally create subdirectories on that root directory.
4.  If directories/subdirectories/files are to be access by any
NON-SFS-ADMIN user, or the base user that was created in step 1, then you
need to GRANT authorizations those userids.

Q LIMITS ALL  will show all the users that are enrolled.

Filepool VMSERVS is the IBM filepool.  It will get replaced by IBM.  Not a
good place to store your stuff.

Filepool VMSERVU is setup as the default for users.  As shipped, it doesn't
have much disk space.

If you use VMSERVU, the first thing you need to do is add disk space.   If
you create your own, you need to generate it with lots of disk space.

Once SFS became available (VM/SP 5), I would never want to operate without
it <G>.
