Generally, the rule is the following: You z/VM cannot help you for running old NON-WORKING OSes on given machine. Note, this is not about what is supported, but what is feasible to run on bare metal (LPAR). So, in this case z/OS 1.10 can run on EC12, but not on z14. Use of z/VM doesn't change

Right. I only know for a fact that all of the swans I have ever seen were white. I believe what is happening is that the DETACH is posting the ATTACH completion ECB and therefore making it available to be waited upon again. Because my ESTAEX exit code, that always WAITs on the same ECB following t
