Unlikley, (1)AIX runs as a VM{XA,SP} guest not as an MVS guest. (2) there
is no way that I know of to use the even the VM/SP calls. (3) What would
you be interested in using from MVS/VM anyway? I/O? some obscure SVC?
You'll find that you can increase the allowable size of jobs on AIX/370 if
the Virtual machine (VM) is an XA virtual machine (that is if /bin/xa370
returns 0). Compile with the -xa option (actually you only need it during the
link phase).
