SYNCHOME   =   'c1   … c256'

The SYNCHOME option is used to specify the location of the MFX HFS library under OMVS. This will be created during the installation process by transferring a member to your OMVS environment. You will create a directory named either /sshfsj6 or /sshfsj6X. /sshfsj6 must be used for 31-bit Java SDK V8 and /sshfsj6X used for all 64-bit versions of the Java (V8 and later).

For more information, see STEP 6: Create a zFS Directory (Optional) of chapter Installation Procedure.

Up to 256 characters can be specified for the location. The value must be enclosed within single apostrophes.   

This option is required to support the OUTPUT feature of the OUTFIL control statement.

The default is a null SYNCHOME.

Note: A single ampersand character (&) is not accepted by the ASMA90 assembler. If you want an ampersand in the SYNCHOME option, use two ampersands (&&).
