I'd love more of this type of content please :) and also as/400 if possible :D
@Judsonator
Very proud of you!!!! If i could afford one i would love some old big iron.
@Happy_Gerbil-se1wt
Thank you for posting these videos! I worked on a 7060-H01 day-in-and-day-out in production for six years, that was (wow!) 20 years ago! Thank you so much for giving me another look at one of the machines still with us! Congratulations on your excellent maintanance and care!

I worked for 36 years at IBM Brazil providing mainframe maintenance. If you have any questions, I can help.

I have not seen MVS/TSO-E for nearly 40 years. Man, that takes me back.
@MySmartHomeDomain
Awesome addition to the collection. Thanks for sharing
@jovetj
Wow I'd love to have one of these myself!

I would suggest for power supply repair - install new safety capacitors in place for Rifas. Check other electrolytic capacitors for ESR, and I would suggest to replace all of the same kind caps that blew up - with new, low ESR ones, not something old ripped out from Cisco gear :D Good to service both units same way. I'm impressed with this mainframe. I've managed to get hands only on x232 and x235 xseries x86 machines. I've upgraded them with max RAM and bunch of 300GB SCSI drives.
@tenminutetokyo2643
What a beast!
@MS-ig7ku
That is a cute mainframe.
@SixSilverStones
This is awesome!
@skynetcybersystem3tech
👍PERFECT

I have installed Linux S390 on such a machine in 2000. You can still find documentation at Marist college.
@stonent
For backing up the service element, if you can find anyway to get that thing booted from a floppy, or briefly from the IDE port, you could use an old copy of Norton Ghost to back up the c: drive image to a compressed image file on a drive on the IDE port. Or if the network chip is standard, get it online with some dos drivers and map a drive using the old DOS LanMan tools and save the Ghost image there on a file share. Or I suppose if that SSA PCI card could reach out of the case, install it in another PC and hope the drivers could pick it up.
@douro20
I believe this is one of the earliest models which could run z/OS. Do I see two SSA cards in there?
@MrLampbus
Whats happening with that lovely little 5362 in the background :) ? I had one many years ago to do a bit of SW development on.
@AK-vx4dy
This is a mainframe ???? I saw onec small HP one, but was 2 times taller... 🤯
@ChrisCebelenski
What's the power requirement for this? I assume single phase, given the strip... Must be less than 20A draw, which is pretty good for the vintage. Those DSA disks were fairly hungry spinning up, but IIRC settled down around 8W each, still high by today's standards but not bad again for the time. I bet one of my old SGI's eat more power than this.
@rty1955
does it run VSE?
