Hello

Only complementing the previous answer.

This is a no-charge offering.
The mainframe hardware is located at Marist College, with I am not wrong.
Last time I cheched, there were two Linux on z o.s. options: Suse and Red
Hat. Ubuntu 16.04 s390x was released with special justification.
Just following the pdf instructions, you probably will need to import the
ssh key to be able to connect on the environment.
After the 120-days the environment is invariably deleted.

Good luck!
