This is the command I would use too, however if you are sharing it READ only across multiple lpars, and have not implemented shared sysplex filesystem, then there is no way to change the mount characteristics.
Based on your last email it looks like you were able to accomplish what you wanted. _________________________________________________________________ Dave Jousma Assistant Vice President, Mainframe Engineering [email protected] 1830 East Paris, Grand Rapids, MI 49546 MD RSCB2H p 616.653.8429 f 616.653.2717 -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Anthony Thompson Sent: Tuesday, April 12, 2016 8:11 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: How to make USS ROOT read/write temporarily? I use the chmount command: chmount -w / (and the -r switch is used to turn the filesystem hosting the named directory back to read-only) By default this command is stored in usr/sbin, some sites moves it to /bin so it's in the default path.

We need to make a production USS ROOT R/W temporarily in order to define a new directory that will point to a separate ZFS. Then back to read-only. I don't remember how to do it. Help. . . .
