bpxwmigf will migrate an hfs (and more recently zfs) file system to a zfs file system while mounted and in-use. This is intended to be non-disruptive in production. Should you find an hfs file system you need after you migrate to 2.5, open a problem with IBM support. Although not usable on 2.5, t

I think the question came up from someone who had not had to administer ZFS/HFS before. It was one of these "where do I start" questions. Of course once you are familiar with an area it gets easier. Colin On Wed, 6 Oct 2021 at 22:04, Radoslaw Skorupka wrote: > W dniu 06.10.2021 o 16:44, Ed Jaff

You will not be able to specify a filesystype of HFS in the OMVS BPXPRMxx parameters at the z/OS V2R5 level. At the previous z/OS levels you can remove the specification to disable the HFS file system capability. This will take a restart of OMVS to be effective. The HFS file systems can be co

For mounted filesystems, SDSF FS command shows what the type is. I can assure you that on z/OS 2.5, you will not see a type HFS mounted. Various utilities that list catalog entries could be used to look for DSNTYPE HFS. The dataset type code (NVSMATTR) is 'P' from IGGCSI00 if you have something
