This seems to be related to the Predictive Failure Analysis (PFA)
introduced via an APAR in z/OS 1.10.
I reviewed the Problem Management G325-2564-05 but am not sure as
to what is the purpose of the directory.
(seems to be a repository of historical data).
On my z/OS 1.10 I can see an existing path /var/pfa but I do not
know if there is any relationship between the two (PFA STG LOCATION
and /var/pfa).
I admit I do not like making any new/ my own directories in
ROOT (/) and prefer to stick to what z/OS provides.
I assume I will mount a separate file system on PFA STG LOCATION for
PFA use if I ever configure it and run.
If you installed 1.11 ServerPac - what path did you choose for
PFA STG LOCATION and for what reason?
I'm sure it can be changed later, but I pointed it to a local directory
where we install software:
PFA
PFA OWNER USERID D PFAUSER
PFA STG LOCATION D /mylcldir/pfapath
PFA USER PASSWORDD
