Hank,

Certainly.? I performed a SYSGEN of OS/VS1 using Mark Waterbury's v1.6.0 distribution files and Simon Toffler's instructions (available on Moshix github OSVS1 repository).? At the end, when I IPLed the system I wasn't able to run any batch jobs.? I would submit them through the card reader use DEVINIT 00C ... on the Hercules console, but nothing would happen.? I realized none of the I/O devices had been started at IPL time so I used STARTF (sf ,00d and ,00e) to start the punch and printer.? I would start the card reader after the first job was loaded on it since the reader is looking to immediately load a job when started.? Still nothing.? Then I determined that there was no initiator running for any partition on the system.? So, I tried starting one in the P00 partition (the same one used for the SYSGEN) but it kept failing.? I then reviewed the job that loads SYS1.PARMLIB during the SYSGEN (g09-parmlib.jcl) and I noticed that the definition of the P0 initiator/partition was different than the others:

./ ADD NAME=DFN01
P0=(C=*,128K)
P1=(C=A,3072K)
P2=(C=A,3072K)
P3=(C=A,3072K)
P4=(C=A,3072K,LAST)

So I tried starting an initiator in a different partition (P01) using "S INIT.P1" and it worked.? I was able to submit batch jobs and review the output on the "printer".

I suspect this is a very long-winded answer to your request, but it was an interesting exercise for me so I tend to go on about it.? Also, I'm very new to the OS/VS1 system so my use of terminology may not be correct.
