Re: Batch JCL on Windows/.NET ???
If it's the one I'm thinking of, it did exist. I remember seeing it in 1988? or was it 1989? on a VM/CMS system that was connected to BITNET. It was a REXX that, when ran, print out an text graphic to the users screen, while mailing itself to everyone in your namesfile. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Hal Merritt Sent: Monday, May 01, 2006 2:58 AM To: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Subject: Re: Batch JCL on Windows/.NET ???

Now you can get JCL errors AND viruses right on the same machine. You always could - ex: the Christmas Tree Virus which was probably more of a worm on VM/Profs which I'm sure affected some machines with MVS guests (and it's old enough that it was called MVS then I believe, possibly MVS/XA or /ESA but still MVS). It's just a lot harder to do, and a LOT harder to infect the operating system itself. Applications, however, are probably easier.

MVS (z/OS) Beginner resources
I'm new to the MVS world. I mostly have a background in UNIX (many varieties), OS/2, Windows, and some VM/CMS. What I'm looking for is any recommendations people have on where someone might get started learning the basics of MVS(z/OS). A book or website or two would be best, but an official, paid class will probably be out of budget for me. The role I'll be playing is that of a REXX programmer (I know REXX from my OS/2 and VM/CMS days.) helping to automate a number of the job flows on our mainframe. So, any books/sites people can recommend?
