Mark Waterbury once said on the hercules-390 goup:
SVS ran very well on a 370 model 158 with 2MB of main storage, circa 1976 or so, running batch and also supporting CICS/VS for on-line applications. No TSO, though, as that was known to be a performance hog.
One of the selling points of CMS was it could run as twice many users of TSO on the same hardware.
SVS 1.7, with the VSAM ICR (independent component release) to support VSAM datasets for use by CICS/OS/VS 1.1.1. BTAM was used with CICS/VS for local terminals, not VTAM. (mainly due to lack of 3705 hardware.)
What does the SVS version in this group's archive have? (Does it have basic VTAM and VSAM?)
