The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the FSx for OpenZFS file system.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Maximum length of 128.  
Pattern: `^arn:(aws|aws-cn|aws-us-gov|aws-eusc|aws-iso|aws-iso-b):fsx:[a-z\-0-9]+:[0-9]{12}:file-system/fs-[0-9a-f]+$`   
Required: Yes

 ** [Protocol](#API_CreateLocationFsxOpenZfs_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="DataSync-CreateLocationFsxOpenZfs-request-Protocol"></a>
The type of protocol that AWS DataSync uses to access your file system.  
Type: [FsxProtocol](API_FsxProtocol.md) object  
Required: Yes
