I'm not good at linux, may be you can try below stuff
cat users.txt | \
while read userid
do
useradd $userid
done
i hope useradd is not an interactive program. But passwd program needs to be invoked for each and every user to assign password or the users can change their password on first longin.. but not sure whether we have a better solution.

NAME
fence_zvm - I/O Fencing agent for GFS on s390 and zSeries VM clusters
SYNOPSIS
fence_zvm [OPTION]...
DESCRIPTION
fence_zvm is an I/O Fencing agent used on a GFS virtual machine in a s390 or zSeries VM cluster. It uses the s3270 program to log the
specified virtual machine out of VM. For fence_zvm to execute correctly, you must have s3270 in your PATH.
fence_zvm accepts options on the command line as well as from stdin. fence_node sends the options through stdin when it execs the agent.
fence_zvm can be run by itself with command line options which is useful for testing.
