George, Check also your HCD definitions into zOS. The same ancient habit keeps all terminals as 3278-2, that doesn't reply correctly to queryable logmodes. The better choice is to define as 3270-X. Have a Happy New Year. __ Clovis From: Alan

z/196 and older Operating Systems

2010-12-29 Thread Tom Duerbusch
Per the IBM documentation, the z/196 requires z/VSE 4.1 or above, z/VM 5.4 or above and Suse 10 or above. Of course, as those products are the only supported products available. So, did the z/196 break older operating systems? I don't care that the older ones can't use newer facilities.
