Description

The MOUNT_POINT_MODE option specifies the z/OS UNIX access permission mode value with which the mounted database file system's root directory is set.

The z/OS UNIX database file system (HFS or zFS) is initialized only if the file .inited is not found in the root directory. When initialization is performed, .inited is created; initialization will not be performed again.

If you need to customize the directory ownership or permissions, define the file .inited in the file system's root directory; the Broker will not perform its initialization.

Values

mode is the z/OS UNIX access permission mode value, which is a sum of the permission modes to be granted.

The following table describes each permission mode.

Mode	Description
100	User execute permission.
200	User write permission.
400	User read permission.
010	Group execute permission.
020	Group write permission.
040	Group read permission.
001	Other execute permission.
002	Other write permission.
004	Other read permission.

The format of mode is the same as the "change mode" USS command chmod. It is an octal number that specifies the permission mode value corresponding to the user, group, and other permission mode fields.

Refer to the IBM UNIX System Services Command Reference for complete details on the chmod command.

Default is 750, which specifies:

Read-write-execute access for the user (permission modes 100, 200, and 400)
Read-execute access for the group (permission modes 010 and 040)
No access for other
