My last contact with a system 360 was back in about 1995 when a company making leather bound 'coffee table' books was finally retiring their glue covered  21 year old 360 and replacing it with an IBM PC, running IBMs version of Unix (AIX).
They wanted email and at that time a modem and UUCP was the only way to do it.
COBOL source could be recompiled to run on AIX.
I don't think 360s are supported any more than is a DEC PDP11.
