Re: How does one install Hercules 4.4.1 on Windows? Issue with: Bertram,/
Hi Dave, Yes, I am beginning to learn. I just was hoping something could be done for those in the future who want to run Hercules.

Re: AP and/or MP support in VM/CE: Does it exist or no?
Dave, I agree. MP might be of benefit, but there are many, many other items ahead of it.

Re: AP and/or MP support in VM/CE: Does it exist or no?
Hi, At OCF, we used our AP strictly for compute bound programs. I was at the research facility and users we doing fluid dynamics of fire, wind, cold air, hot air, etc, we had need for an AP. I take it

Re: AP and/or MP support in VM/CE: Does it exist or no?
My recollection (fuzzy as it may be) is that MPs were available before APs. (The hardware, I mean, not the OS support.) Of course the 360/65 had an MP option, but it was architecturally a bit

Re: AP and/or MP support in VM/CE: Does it exist or no?
Jay, MP support was not available until VM/SP. Mark's port details the reasons that AP support is so poor in VM/370; he is correct. Regards, Bob

Re: AP and/or MP support in VM/CE: Does it exist or no?
I also worked in a shop that had a 158, and upgraded it to an AP, with a total of 6 MB of main storage (4 MB was Memorex add-on memory).? It also worked well for MVS.? IIRC, it also worked

Re: AP and/or MP support in VM/CE: Does it exist or no?
OK, so I'm curious. MPs were available at the same time asAPs, IIRC. Was MP support strictly a VM/HPO feature? Base MVS 3.8 works on AP/MP systems just fine. My first sysprog job was on a 370/158AP

Re: AP and/or MP support in VM/CE: Does it exist or no?
AP support is available in VM/370? (not MP), but I wouldn't recommend bothering with it.? Because of the limitations where the attached processor cannot do i/o, it forces a lot of extra overhead

Official(?) Hercules web site
If you do a generic (default) Google search for "hercules390 emulator", the first link returned is for the VERY old/obsolete original "http://www.hercules-390.org/" web site for Hercules version 3.07

VM/379 has no MP support. OK, why would AP support be nice? Details, please. Bob Bolch wrote:

Hello Chris, Thank you. My point is simple: For new people who are looking for Hercules (such as myself) it looks like Google is going to the www.hercules-390.org website before the 4.4.1 on Github.

Re: AP and/or MP support in VM/CE: Does it exist or no?
Hi Dave, Updating the AP code and adding MP might be nice. I'm assuming (oh, yeah, I know what that can mean) Hercules supports multiple processors (e.g. sockets and cores). If so, it would be nice
