Hi Saurabh, I would think that virtual SYSPLEX training would be very difficult to provide, since you would need access to HMC hardware consoles and other equipment (at least one system z machine where you could define a coupling facility and multiple LPARS with access to DASD and TAPE

What you have said was true in the past, about jobs having more data in SMF than STCs sometimes did. Some STCs must still be single step, such as an external writer or anything running a program in the PPT. This is not true of CICS. We run multi-step CICS regions as started jobs (not tasks) as

You can do at least part of this with 3270. The Nomad2 product does part of it, but it drives the 3270 itself basically using alternate screen stuff. Only one piece of the screen is allowed to input and the rest can have scrolling data in multiple pieces that are driven by the Nomad2
