Creating a Directory in SFS

You can create a directory or subdirectory in a file pool using the DMSCRDIR routine (Create Directory). Remember the following rules when creating directories:
  • You cannot create a top directory using DMSCRDIR. A top directory is automatically created when you are enrolled in a SFS file pool.
  • Including the top directory, nine levels of directories are the maximum that can be created.
  • You can only create a directory structure one level at a time.
  • You cannot create a directory in another user's directory structure. However, the SFS administrator can create a directory in another user's directory structure.
You can commit the newly created directory by including the commit parameter in the routine.
