Hello list,

Just IPLed z/OS 3.1 on our sandbox and tried to start zOSMF.  The angel process 
started but the server process fails.  I compared file permissions in the 
/global/zosmf directories between my 2.4 system and 3.1 system and they're the 
same.  The server is failing in the IZUSVR1 step with a cond code 2048.  

STDOUT output:

The first message in the STDERR says it couldn't write to the messages.log

I noticed it is running java 8 where I have java 11 and 17 installed.  Does 
zOSMF work on 3.1 with java 8?  

Any idea what I may be missing here?  

TIA
Rex
