According to the website of the maintainer of the software is MVS 3.8j Tur(n)key 4- ("TK4-") a ready to use OS/VS2 MVS 3.8j system built specifically to run under the Hercules System/370, ESA/390, and z/Architecture Emulator. It is an extension of the original MVS Tur(n)key Version 3 System ("TK3") created by Volker Bandke in 2002.
There is also a TK3 available, but of course better is to use the newest iteration of it, TK4.
You can find it here, and it runs under Windows or Linux.

After download, unzip it in a directory of choice, read the manual, and start the system. You will have now a mainframe running!
You need to connect and login by the use of a terminal emulator, there are several, most payware. For Linux you can use C3270, and for Windows the free CryptoTerm is available.
On how to operate the system its best to see it doing, and the best teacher in this is Moshix. He has over a hundred movies available.
I am not going to give you a crash course here on that, you can do it easily by yourself if you really want to figure things out. Just make a regular backup!
See about above on this channel purpose.
