Greetings David,
Once again wise words from the "SNA Gateway"...
:^)
I gotta say that the option Tim Sipples, proposed of running Oracle in a
zOS guest under VM is a bit more practical than running Oracle 7, I just
find it facinating that Oracle appears to have abandoned VM, but not MVS.
On the other hand, I have done my time with Oracle...
Thanks and...
Kindest Regards,
Paul Flint

Subject: Re: Oracle under z/VM without Linux?
Am I dreaming to assume that Oracle would actually=20 support 7 on a current
z/VM?
Probably not. I'm sure if you a) managed to find a copy, and b) threw large
bales of cash at them, they'd find a way, but Oracle 7 was long, long ago. I
doubt any modern application would be able to connect to it, and all their VM
talent has long ago gotten other jobs and moved on. I doubt they even have a
way to generate a license key for it anymore, but you'd have to ask them.
