Your presumed answer is exactly right... nothing special is required in
zVM. I've installed a number of systems (z9 and z10 using zVM 5.2, 5.3,
and 5.4) and generally use an ICC connected terminal as the OPERATOR
console and it comes up perfectly from the first (normal) IPL. It's just
another 3270.
The biggest 'problem' is configuring the ICC (in both the ICC and the
IOCP), and that is not much of a problem at all.

I have just been asked to verify that z/VM 5.3 has no requirements in order
to support ICC. I presume that means no configuration definitions, software
to install, virtual machines to define. There are so many references to ICC
in a search of the 5.3 library, that it will take a lot of looking, a lot
of time (which I do not have unless I take it home at night) to come to a
definitive conclusion. The answer appears to be that if it is defined in
the IOCDS, VM will be happy to use it. Can someone either confirm or
disabuse me of this notion?
