For all of my Java programs on z/OS, which is limited, but have done a few 
different items, I have only used the Java loaded with z/OS install.  Also, 
there should a src.zip in /usr/lpp/java/J8.0_64 folder, with a lot of sample 
Java code.  One thing to note, make sure you have these in your configuration

LIBPATH $java_home/bin, $java_home/lib/s390x, $java_home/lib/s390x/j9vm
CLASSPATH       load $java_home/lib, $java_home/lib/ext

And here are some helpful Java option setting as well.

# Set JZOS specific options                                                
# Use this variable to specify encoding for DD STDOUT and STDERR           
#export JZOS_OUTPUT_ENCODING=Cp1047                                        
# Use this variable to prevent JZOS from handling MVS operator commands    
#export JZOS_ENABLE_MVS_COMMANDS=false                                     
# Use this variable to supply additional arguments to main                 
#export JZOS_MAIN_ARGS=""                                                  
# Configure JVM options                                                    
IJO="-Xms16m -Xmx128m"                                                     
# Uncomment the following to aid in debugging "Class Not Found" problems   
#IJO="$IJO -verbose:class"                                                 
# Uncomment the following if you want to run with Ascii file encoding..    
#IJO="$IJO -Dfile.encoding=ISO8859-1"                                      
export IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS="$IJO "

Re  JZOS:

The last time I looked at JZOS , about 2 years ago, there were no supplied 
classes for 64 bit java, only 31 bit.
JZOS itself had a 64 bit option to run the batch launcher,   but no classes 
that I could find, like those for the MVS datasets or my
favorite one for ZipDataSets.
And the documentation consisted of a README file from IBM that pointed to a 
bogus, non-existent web site.

Before I try JZOS again, is it supplying classes compiled with 64 bit  java or 
not?

Yes. And while you are at it, do have a look at the excellent jZos stuff 
originally from Dovetailed, but now included in the JVM. It has (amongst many 
other goodies) a ZFile class.

Cheers,

Jantje.
