[PARMGEN] Can we add more steps to create/mount zFS/HFS in KCIJPUSP

While doing PARMGEN, we need to run the 6. KCIJPUSP, 7.KCIJPUSS. Then, some of file will be created on USS.

Currently, we did not create a specific HFS/zFS to accommodate this file, so that the file will occupy the space of Root Volume.

Hence, I am wondering whether we can propose to create zFS/HFS Steps and to Mount step in KCIJPUSP job.

    We have decided to reject this enhancement request and regret any inconvenience this may cause.
    The decision to reach this decision was based on several factors. One criteria we look at is the applicability of the enhancement to several customers. In many cases we find that it would be a different person responsible for the HFW/zFS mount creation to that using PARMGEN.
    There are reminders within the documentation already to instruct the user to ensure the filesystem is mounted. For example:
    #1: On the PARMGEN welcome screen, it is covered in the checklists
    #2: When editing the RTE profile, similar USS set-up considerations are provided as the customer customizes the RTE_USS_RTEDIR SDA directory
    #3: When submitting the USS jobs, similar USS set-up considerations are provided as customer reviews the USS job
    #4: SUBMIT help panel about KCIJPUSS also provides similar USS set-up considerations
    #5: Preinstallation Installation and Instructions master SYSPREP technote
