We are currently in the process of restoring a 4341 to operating condition. We have just last week corrected a fault in the power system, and are able to power the system up and IML it from floppy.
We are now deciding what operating system to run on the restored system. Most likely, we will run VM/370, but possibly we will run an MVS guest as well. I used to be an MVS systems programmer, but that was more than 30 years ago, and even the rust has eroded away. I would like to brush up on operations and systems programming, which would be much simpler if a modern z/OS and/or z/VM course would suffice for the older operating systems. Have the operator commands and programming utilities changed radically since 1984 (JES2, CMS)? Please feel free to reply privately if you wish to tell me how foolish this sounds.
