The IBM z800 (and z900 for that matter) never officially supported OS/390
2.5. Do you have any anecdotal reports of that particular combination
running (and any known caveats)? I can't say I've ever run into that
combination.

z/OS 2.3, released in September, 2017, requires a zBC12/zEC12 or higher
model. z/OS 2.2 is the last release that's compatible with the z114.
There's no End of Service date announced yet for z/OS 2.2, but September
30, 2020, would be consistent with prior release lifecycles.
