Even with a license there is hardly any chance of getting DB2 to run MVS3.8j as DB2 v8 and later absolutely requires 64 bit addressing as it puts a lot of its data above the bar. Even with older versions it needs cross memory services to communicate with its (a minimum of) three address spaces, client SRBs for parallel processing, expanded memory for hiperpools and probably a lot more. Getting Sql-lite to run on MVS would probably be more feasible.

  I'm not aware of any system level dependencies in DB2, but it 
  may be difficult for you to get a license.
