11.PP
12The \fBmmcrfileset\fR command constructs a new fileset with the
13specified name. The new fileset is empty except for a root directory,
14and does not appear in the directory name space until the
15\fBmmlinkfileset\fR command is
16issued. The \fBmmcrfileset\fR command is separate from the
17\fBmmlinkfileset\fR command to allow
18the administrator to establish policies and quotas on the fileset before it is
19linked into the name space.
20.PP

79You must have root authority to run the \fBmmcrfileset\fR
80command.
81.PP
82You may issue the \fBmmcrfileset\fR command from any node in the GPFS
83cluster.
84.PP
85When using the \fBrcp\fR and \fBrsh\fR commands for remote
86communication, a properly configured \fB.rhosts\fR file must exist
87in the root user's home directory on each node in the GPFS
88cluster. If you have designated the use of a different remote
89communication program on either the
90\fBmmcrcluster\fR
91or the
92\fBmmchcluster\fR command, you must
93ensure:
94.RS +3
95.HP 3
961. Proper authorization is granted to all nodes in the GPFS cluster.
97.HP 3
982. The nodes in the GPFS cluster can communicate without the use of a
