Hi I 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 WinPcap 2. Installed Telnet client 3. Installed Hercules 4. Installed TN3270 terminal application 5. Opened Hercules in command prompt 6. Started Hercules with installed .cnf file 7. 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 computer 9. ran dasdinit to create DASD image files for 3330 and 3350 in that new location 9. Copied existing hercules.cnf file to hat new location and made below changes ARCMODE S/370 # .-----------------------Device number # | .-----------------Device type # | | .---------File name and parameters # | | | # V V V # ---- ---- -------------------- 0009 1052 000C 3505 D:/Mainframe/DASD/initdasd.txt eof 0130 3330 D:/Mainframe/DASD/im0130.3330 0250 3350 D:/Mainframe/DASD/im0250.3350 where the initdasd.txt file contains IBCDASDI statements for 3330 and 3350 10. Now started Hercules as: hercules -f <new cnf file> 11. Opened Telnet to localhost and port 3270 12. Now tried to ipl 00C to format DASD volume. But here the IPL failed. Do not know what to do next, please suggest. Thanking You Santanu
