In this example, the mount command in the automount policy file is used to do ASCII to EBCDIC conversion.

Operand

Description

type NFS

Identifies the automount file system type as NFS.

parm mvshost<asis_name>",convserv(LE)",xlat(Y)

Specifies the parameter information to be supplied to NFS. mvshost specifies the name of the NFS Server. /<asis_name> is the remote file system. convserv(LE) is a z/OS NFS server option convserv to conversion technique. The string should be enclosed in quotes. xlat(Y) is a z/OS NFS client option xlat to allow the client to perform ascii to ebcdic conversion. The string should not be enclosed in quotes.
