That's very likely your actual problem. The IBM SDK for z/OS, Java Technology 
Edition, Version 8 definitely requires z/OS 1.13 or higher.

That's incorrect. Even the z890/z990 model generation can run Java 8, and your 
machine is one model generation newer than that.

If you have a "sandbox" LPAR with z/OS 1.13 or z/OS 2.1 you can try again. 
(z/OS 1.13 and 2.1 are the only two z/OS releases that are compatible with both 
IBM z9 BC machines and Java 8.)
