Ron,

The "sockdev"  "hook" into the rdr device is only necessary if you

If you're not going to use that, you can just define the rdr as 000C  *.

There is probably also a "raw" / "normal" rdr on device addr 10C.  If
it's not there, you can simply add it to the config file.  You can
also add devices "dynamically" after the system is up, using the
'attach' hercules command.

If you look at

and click on the MVS Generation, then scroll down to SG0160 - Sysgen,
Stage 1, you can see the available device addresses

And at http://www.jaymoseley.com/hercules/installmvs/mvsfaq.htm

under "What is the relationship between an MVS device, the Hercules'
configuration, and the host OS file (or client)?:

"The MVS operating system expects specific hardware devices to be
attached and accessible at a specific hardware addresses.  ......"
