That is very odd. The same VM guest starts up fine on an EC12 and newer, but
anything older than that fails. z/VM and z/OS are both at the latest release
level with all current maintenance.
Now I'm curious what the secret sauce is to make that work.

This is incorrect. I just tried it again to make sure - even under z/VM, on a
z196, z/OS 2.3 instantly drops the CP into a disabled wait with PSW 0002
8000 0020007B.

The documentation is correct. Anything older than EC12 (or BC12) will drop to a
wait state. I've tried it on a z196 and almost instantly get a wait.

Look through some of Marc Verdiell's videos. He's got a bunch on the 1401 that

I would ask the same question - what's the end-goal? If you're just trying to
test something or revive some old gear for a while, an IBM 8229 LAN Bridge can
be had for bugger all off eBay. It just bridges traffic between an Ethernet
LAN and a token ring LAN. If this is a more permanent thing,
I'll throw in a bit of "extra" behind this:
Anyone who works in security almost certainly has heard of Metasploit. If not,
Google it - it's pretty much a framework that puts known attacks into an
easy-to-use platform for pentesting (or illicit activities if one decided to
use it for such thing
Will,
If you can find one (they're on eBay, but the cables are rare); a company
called Inline makes these really sweet converter boxes which accept input from
nearly anything (IBM terminals, VAX's, MDA, CGA, etc - you name it, it's
probably able to accept it) and it converts that to standard 5-
In that case, it's even better than you're a long-time member!
I'm quite surprised that it was still in-use 2 years ago; although I was just
as surprised when I found out my system was taken offline a week before I
bought it; so I guess people still do run on old hardware.

Second, a running ES/9000 is crazy-hard to come by; so that's a great score!
