This group is for all folks running the original IBM VM/370 Release 6 operating system (or later (e.g. VMTCE (Community Edition)) on Hercules. Like the other early IBM operating systems this version has always been in the public domain and so can be freely distributed. The base version as supplied by IBM is lacking in many facilities. IBM solved this by providing additional extension products which were licensed and so are not available. There are however many user enhancements available which can be installed. In addition, in order to get users up and running quickly updated "releases" of VM/370 included the most popular updates are available for download, so novices can start to learn VM without having to delve into the system internals. It is intended that this wiki will provide information on the base release and these updates.
The available versions are here :-

Is the above mangled from what you sent? IA gives me a "No URL has been captured for this URL prefix" error. (I live behind a $%^*& "protection" system, i.e. URL destroyer, sigh.) De

Re: IBM Documentation Hidden At IBM
I googled 1fc5g101 and got this URL as first hit. So I guess there are ways to find them anyway. Looking for the Erep Users guide gives the URL as well, though that wil give ifc5g103. Funny part is

Re: Recursive VM installation?
That sounds encouraging, thanks for laying that out. I would think too that performance shouldn't be a problem. This is very much an academic exercise anyways. The idea is just to demonstra
