Abstract
A mechanism is provided for providing access to mainframe-based data in a non-mainframe format. A host computer system receives a request from a client system to mount a dataset on a data storage device controlled by the host computer system as a data volume on the client system. The host system verifies the client system's authority to mount the requested dataset. The dataset is mounted as the data volume on the client system. The dataset, after mounting, behaves as native to the client system. Subsequent input/output (I/O) requests associated with the mounted dataset are processed by the host computer system.
