The z/VM 5.2.0 General Information manual, Appendix B. IBM Operating
Systems Supported as Guests of z/VM, merely shows:
z/OS V1 (1) z/VM V5.2 V UM (3)
Notes for z/OS Guests:
(1) Exploitation of hardware function by z/OS may require specific levels
of z/VM. For details, see z/OS and z/OS.e: Planning for Installation, GA2
2-
7504.
(2) If the z/VM host is running on an S/390 Multiprise 3000 or S/390 G5 o
r
G6 server, a z/OS guest runs only in 31-bit mode. If the z/VM host is
running on a System z server, a z/OS guest must run in 64-bit mode on a 6
4-
bit CP image.
(3) z/VM does not support external coupling facilities or real coupling
links.
The same manual for z/VM 5.3.0 is no different, except note (2) is gone.
I think you are going to have to find a z/OS manual, perhaps Planning for
Installation, GA22-7504 mentioned above.
