Perfectly good question, especially since this system does have an IFL....
But, this VM is only on the CP, there is a separate VM for the IFL.
Also, I am successfully running a zOS 1.5, zOS 1.8 and two VSE 2.7.3
systems on this same VM where OS/390 refuses to run.
Thanks

Might be a stupid question, but you are running this on a PU and not an
IFL,
right?
