No you are not hallucinating, however I don't recall what the software was
called either. Ultimately we didn't buy it because it would have used
os/390 (now Z/os) eligilble CP's which would have driven up our ISV costs.
What it did was create an address space underwhich you could run z/linux,
accessing disk and othe resources in a virtualized environment with the
address space. Each address space ran as regulart os/390 workload.
This goes back to about 2002.

Does anybody remember a piece of software that ran under MVS, OS/390, or
z/OS that ran Linux/390 as another address space?
About two years ago I found a web site that was marketing this software.
It was written in Russia but was being marketed by an American firm. I've
tried to find it this afternoon but I can't remember the name and can't
come up with the right key word search on google.
I really don't think I dreamed this!

What are you talking about?
No Linux distribution can run on z/OS or MVS; Slackware will run just
fine under VM.
Or was there some antecedent, other than "slackware", that I missed?
