Hi, Enzo.
First, welcome to the wonderful
What Jay said. Yes, you can run z/VM on a z114 with only FBA devices (I know of
a z114 in Sweden being run that way), but it can not emulate CKD devices. If
you want to run MVS. or z/OS, either in an LPAR or as a guest of z/VM, you will
need CKD dasd someplace.

Since you appear to be somewhere in New York State, I would suggest that you

z/VM can run just fine on FBA, but it can't simulate CKD on it.

expensive for them to install 3-phase. I emailed our group about it

I saw that Timothy Siples already posted this, but I wanted to share some more
information about my new system, and my setup. I am currently a high school
junior located in New York. For the last month or so, I have been in the
