No. The operating system and application software ran on the mainframe
CPU. But - as described above - a key design aspect of mainframes back
then was that I/O was not done by the CPU (like it was done on home
computers were all I/O was entirely handled by the CPU), but fully off-
loaded to peripherials that were essentially limited computers of their
own:
 - CPU tells I/O interface (channel): "Do this I/O"
 - CPU goes back to computing, channel does some I/O heavy lifting
 - channel has completed I/O and sends an "Hey, I'm done" interrupt
   to the CPU

Which leaves most of the CPU free to do compute work instead of busily
doing lots of I/O. This and other design concepts (like form based
terminals doing local editing - think web forms filled in the browser, send
as a whole form and processed as a single request by the server, instead
of the server handling every keystroke on the terminal) enabled having
thousands of interactive users on one mainframe, since the mainframe CPU
did almost entirely compute (e.g. run the database and software for
inventory, accounting, ...) and all I/O was offloaded to specialized
computers (channels) acting as I/O interfaces. You essentially pay with
extra complexity for a far more capable system.

Kind regards,
           Alex.

"Fully offloaded" is a bit weasel worded. I thought PCs did offload some 
duties to io devices, nic chip, wifi chip, gpu card. sound card. Also, 
even a mainframe will need service routines to handle communications 
with IO devices. Where to draw the line seems unclear.

Caveat: I don't have a clue about these things, it is just that what you 
are saying doesn't sound quite right.

Fully offloaded is accurate.  For the Burroughs mainframes, a single
instruction -initiated- an I/O request to a channel.   The IIO (later
SPIO) instruction would instruct the I/O processor (in the late 70s
the IOP used an 8085 uProcessor) to initiate an I/O by passing a
6-digit (24-bit) opcode/variant word and the start and end addresses
of the buffer.   The IOP would pass the command to a Data-Link Processor
(DLP) that handled communications to the device controller (magnetic
tape, disk) or unit record device (printer, card reader, card punch)
or external communications processor (RS232/20ma current loop) and wait
for the controller to start passing data back to the IOP.  The IOP
would move the data to the appropriate memory buffer and, when complete,
signal the processor that the I/O had completed with an interrupt.

Yes, you can give me a lot of details, but I'm not seeing the 
fundamental difference between that and DMA IO devices that have been 
around since the first IBM PC in 1981.

As I said I'm naive of this kind of low level stuff, but from my view as 
an application programmer I'm failing to see a fundamental difference 
from a PC, offloading an IO task to a non CPU device with communication 
via registers, interrupts and DMA.

A prime example of neat code is that HASP (now JES) printed an entire 
page with one channel program instead of a line at a time. It also read 
a number of cards with one channel program instead of one card at a 
time, or, as someone has mentioned, one card column at a time.

The coolest channel program I ever saw was one I cribbed from a
boot loader and enhanced a bit.  You passed it a file name and
a device address, and it would go out to the drive, find out
where the VTOC (volume table of contents) lived, seek to it,
and search for the format 1 label that described the file you
were looking for.  Mind you, it tied up the channel for the
duration, but the machine I was working on didn't multitask,
so it was a win for me.

Original 360, there was limited processor and storage, but a lof of
excess channel capacity ... as a result things like finding data was
offloaded to channels ... which would "search" for desired data ... and
as a result, channels ran half-duplex ... with channel dedicated to
single operation ... constantly pulling search argument from processor
storage.

Move into 80s, storage got lot more abundant ... and channel
architecture increasingly channel I/O increasingly became
system throughput bottleneck.

Early 80s, I wrote tome that 60s era 360/67 could get 70-80 CP67/CMS
users on system ... and early 80s, with IBM processors getting 40-50
times faster and storage increasing 40-50 larger, should be able be see
3000-4000 users, but was only seeing 300-400 users (because disks &
channels throughput only increased 3-5 times (partly because half-duplex
operation increasingly played a latency role in fully being able to see
benefits of any speed increase).

A IBM disk division executive took exception and assigned the division
performance group to refute the claim. After a couple weeks, they came
back and said I had slightly understated the issue.

1988, one of issues of being able to see significant increase in
throughput with LLNL serial stuff ... becoming fibre-channel standard
was running full-duplex being able to concurrently transmit and receive
on 1gbit speed links (w/o having to wait for full round-trip
hand-shaking).

Note: 1980, IBM STL (since renamed SVL) was bursting at seams and 300
people/terminals from IMS group were being moved to offsite bldg, with
dataprocessing service back to STL datacenter. They had tried "remote
3270" but found human factors totally unacceptable.

I get con'ed into doing channel extender support, allowing placing 3270
controllers at offsite bldg with no perceived difference in human
factors. Unanticipated side-effect was the associated systems'
throughput increase 10-15 percent. STL had been speading 3270
controllers across all channels with 3330 drives. The channel-extenders
(operating full-duplex) significantly reduced the channel busy
interference with the 3330 drives (for same amount of 3270 traffic;
there was some consideration moving all 3270 controllers to
channel-extenders).

Note once the 3033 was out the door, the processor engineers start on
trout/3090. They configure memory, processor, channels, I/O to meet
specific throughput goals. However, in San Jose, the administration
dictated that the 3880 disk controller would use a (really slow,
resulting in significant channel busy) vertical CISC processor (much
slower than the previous processor in 3830 controller).

The 3090 people thought the 3880 would be the same as 3830, but
supporting 3380 3mbyte/sec transfer, when they found out how bad the
3880 controllers' channel busy was (there is significantly amount of
half-cuplex channel protocol back&forth undernearth the covers with
latency playing increasing role), they realized they would have to
significantly increase the number of I/O channels in order to achieve
system throughput targets ... which required an additional TCM (3090
said semi-facetiously they would bill the 3880 organization for the
increase in 3090 manufacturing cost). Marketing eventually comes up with
what a fantastic I/O machine the 3090 is with big increase in number of
channels (but it was actually role played by slower 3880 controller and
increase in channel busy associated with protocol chatter).

With different resource constraints the system would have needed 
redesign to really make use of what it had - like ISAM (disk-intensive) 
became VSAM (more memory-intensive).

Some minis offered an option for peripherals to have at least
some of this kind of smarts.  It was called "DMA" (direct memory
access), since the peripherals directly accessed memory rather
than having to pass data through the CPU.  It was one of those
gee-whiz things that you might want if you could justify the cost.

In the mainframe world, you never heard the term "DMA".
It was taken for granted.

I have a somewhat personal definition of a mainframe, which I also
includes the classical ones.

A mainframe is a computer that

- is very expensive
- takes large resources to run (a computer center)
- has very good performance in at least one field
- is not a cluster, massively parallel etc

As computers have evolved, the field of performance has shifted.
The 704 and the Cray-1 both had high computing performance for
their day, but low reliability.  The 360/30 was slow, but had
good I/O capabilities.

Today's mainframes can no longer compete on compute power, but
they have extremely high reliability (you can literally fire a
bullet through a CPU, and things will migrate smoothly - if you
don't hit the Recovery Unit), good I/O and lots of sub-processors
to lighten the load on the CPU.

I read that, when minis came along, their first defining
characteristic was that they didn't need computer center resources
and fit in a single room.

Cloud providers like Amazon, Google, Microsoft etc offer much higher
reliability through massive parallelism, based on cheap, yet highly
redundant hardware running a Free Software stack that is not priced
per CPU. That is much more cost-effective and any equivalent number of
mainframes. And there is no “Recovery Unit” that you can shoot at to
take it out.

The nice thing is, you can run the same sort of “enterprise-class”
setup that the big folks operate in your own homelab, because all the
foundation software they use is available to you, too

Not exactly the same. The mainframe design philosophy includes "The
machine MUST NOT fail", for which one pays in complexity and system
cost. As long as your workload fits on that single machine (or a
small cluster (Parallel Sysplex)) and is of the "MUST NOT fail"
nature, fine.

Highly distributed systems like those run and offered by the hyperscalers
are built on an entirely different design philosophy:
 - _everything_ fails all the time (law of big numbers: take the MTBF
   for a compute component, run a lot of them and you've got a steady
   rain of failures, e.g. say you've got an MTBF of 1 million hours and
   you run 2 million of these devices, then on average you'll have a
   failure every half hour)
 - deal with it
 - run a software stack that is highly distributed and highly redundant,
   e.g. do not just store one or two copies of data, store 4 copies
   of the data plus two copies of the recovery checksums so you still
   recover the data after losing some pieces
 - you will end up with impressive complexity because building a reliable
   system on top of unreliable components is not easy
 - it helps a lot if your workloads can tolerate small to tiny amounts
   of failure (e.g. loading a web page times out, uploading a file fails)
   - but reliable operations (such as a planet scale consistent database)
     are doable, they just need more work and smarts
 - one key aspect: well designed highly distributed system scale very
   well, a scale-up factor of 10 without any system changes aside from
   adding more hardware falls under "baseline capability" and much higher
   scale-ups are the norm

Kind regards,
           Alex.

Didn't I read somewhere that techs in large datacenters get around on

    - The daylight savings change.
      Once you get the GMT time and local offset set correctly the
      other problem is the daylight savings change. Unlike VM, MVS
      allows you to change the local time without an IPL so you should
      be able to make the daylight savings change on the fly. We even
      did it once in production. SMF data uses local time for time
      stamps, so it really got messed up. JES2 automatic commands also
      use local time and they were halted. There are probably other
      problems, but those were enough for us. We IPL for the daylight
      savings change.

The description by Thomas does make it look mainframes are capable of
much more fine-grained fail-safe operation.

There has to be *something* coordinating "recovery" to achieve a similar
level of fail-safe operation with the stack you describe. Entirely
possible, but unless you consider fail-safe "this machine has failed,
here's another one" with no recovery of what was being done, it's
likely not really comparable?

Some mainframes were clustered.  Burroughs, for example,
could share storage between up to four independent hosts;
with shared access to files (with hardware record lockout
for shared updates).

And you could plug them into a wall socket.
