This should work fine. MTS sometimes ran in production under VM back in
the day although I don't think it ever did so at UM. It will be aware
that it is running under VM and may change its behavior in a few ways,
mostly dealing with error recovery. However, this may not be too useful
since it won't have any support for TCP/IP.

I have a Multiprise 3000 system and, now, lots of spare disk space. It
struck me a few moments ago that I can now run MTS on it. The system
currently runs VM/ESA 2.4, z/OS 1.5, VSE/ESA 2.4, and MVS/XA 2.2.3,
all snappily enough for a small number of users.
Will MTS use VM for anything beyond a simple hypervisor? MUSIC/SP
does, since it needs the VM IUCV to talk to the VM TCP/IP stack, but I
don't recall what considerations there are for MTS.
