Creating a new user-defined file system

 

A user-defined file system (UDFS) is a file system that you create and define the attributes for. UDFSs reside in auxiliary storage pools (ASPs) on the system.

To create a new user-defined file system (UDFS), follow these steps:

1. Expand your system in iSeries Navigator > File Systems > Integrated File System > Root > Dev.

2. Click the auxiliary storage pool (ASP) that you want to contain the new UDFS.

3. Select New UDFS from the File menu.

4. Specify the UDFS name, description (optional), auditing values, default file format, default scanning attribute, and whether the files in the new UDFS will have case-sensitive file names on the New User-Defined File System dialog.
