Mounting file systems

After installation is complete, you need to create file systems and mount them to your root file system or somewhere else in the hierarchy.

Start of changeTo have mount processing substitute "ZFS" or "HFS" as appropriate, you can use /// as a placeholder in file system names. When the system encounters /// in the name, the following happens:
  1. It first substitutes the characters "ZFS" and checks the file system. If the system determines that it is not a HFS file system, it gives the mount to zFS to process.
  2. If it is a HFS file system, then the system substitutes the characters "HFS" and checks the file system. If the system determines that it is a HFS file system, it gives the mount to HFS to process. If it is not a HFS file system, it gives the mount to zFS to process.
End of change

After installation is complete, you need to create the file systems and mount them to your root file system or in another place in the file system hierarchy.

Tip: To verify that file systems specified in BPXPRMxx are currently mounted, use the USS_FILESYS_PARMLIB_MOUNTS check provided by IBM® Health Checker for z/OS®.
