Playing with z/OS on Hercules

My new toy. Initially one of the data sets were damaged, but after all I managed to get the networking, including FTP and SSH work.

TSO login, that's easy


L CICS. Now what?
The 3270 terminals work out of the box. The networing had to be set up.


System log. Finally no red lines.
For some reason ssh is only allowed for the webadm user,  but it's possible to su - ibmuser.

and since OMVS is working, I can ssh
Maybe it's time to learn Cobol now :-)

which version of Z/OS is this Artyom?

Where did you get a copy of Z/OS to play with?

This looks like Z/OS 1.13 ADCD, it is easy to find and setup. The last screen copy is from OS/390 ADCD, you can get it from archive.org.

It's actually 1.10 the newest I could get. Where have you seen 1.13?

You're right, it's 1.10. I was never able to find anything more recent on the wild... Nevertheless this version is heavily customised. Playing with this one I had no problem doing ssh to any user (or telnet, you just have to use port 1023 instead of the standard 23, that one is used for 3270). What are you using as LOADPARM?
