Description

The MOUNT_POINT 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 file system is initialized only if the file .inited is not found in the root directory. When initialization is performed once, .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; UEC will not perform its initialization.

Values

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

The following table describes each 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

Default is 750, which specifies:

Read-write-execute access for the user
Read-execute access for the group
No access for other
