Allocating an zFS on USS environments

Define a unique mount point on your UNIX System Services (USS) environment for the deployed runtime environment for the IBM® Transformation Extender USS features that you have installed. Run the DTXDHFS JCL that is installed in the DTX.SDTXSAMP PDS. The DTXDHFS JCL will allocate a Hierarchical File System (HFS) data set on your USS environment, mount it, and set the owner and file permissions.
