REXX/CICS File System

The REXX File System (RFS) is provided for the storage of text files and execs created with the REXX/CICS editor, and by execs using RFS commands and data imported from outside of the REXX File System. RFS was modeled after the Advanced Interactive Executive (AIX®) and OS/2 file systems. The concept of directories is the main idea taken from these environments. Partitioning each directory into several subdirectories will give a hierarchical organization.

You can access RFS functions by using the RFS command. In addition to providing the ability to perform file I/O, the RFS command provides you the ability to do essential file system maintenance.

A file list utility (FLST) is provided as a full screen interface to the REXX File System. This utility can also be used as a platform where other CICS® work can be performed.
