Seems to say here that you need JAVA V17 on z/OS V3.1: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/zos/3.1.0?topic=installation-software-requirements-running-zos-31 If you already have that installed, just change your JAVA_HOME and give it a shot.

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 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.
