HiI am new to this Hercules world. I am trying to install Hercules latest version in my Windows 7 machine. So far I have little success. I need help from the experts of this forum.May be there are many links where such discussion has happened earlier. If someone can guide me to that link, it will also be helpful.I am depicting what I have done so far.1. Installed WinPcap2. Installed Telnet client3. Installed Hercules4. Installed TN3270 terminal application5. Opened Hercules in command prompt6. Started Hercules with installed .cnf file7. Opened TN3270 and successfully connected to Hercules. But there was no DASD/Tape device type available.So I followed few internet blogs and tried below.8. Created a seperate DASD folder in a seperate drive location of my computer9. ran dasdinit to create DASD image files for 3330 and 3350 in that new location9. Copied existing hercules.cnf file to hat new location and made below changesARCMODE S/370# .-----------------------Device number# | .-----------------Device type# | | .---------File name and parameters# | | |# V V V# ---- ---- --------------------0009 1052000C 3505 D:/Mainframe/DASD/initdasd.txt eof0130 3330 D:/Mainframe/DASD/im0130.33300250 3350 D:/Mainframe/DASD/im0250.3350where the initdasd.txt file contains IBCDASDI statements for 3330 and 335010. Now started Hercules as: hercules -f <new cnf file>11. Opened Telnet to localhost and port 327012. Now tried to ipl 00C to format DASD volume. But here the IPL failed.Do not know what to do next, please suggest.Thanking YouSantanu
