MVS (Multiple Virtual Storage) is the most commonly used operating system on the IBM [System 370]? and [System 390]? mainframe comuters. It was later renamed by IBM to OS/390, and then when 64-bit support was added to z/OS; but it remains fundamentally the same operating system. It is descended from SVS, which is in turn descended from MVT, MFT and finally OS/360.
