I am trying to build Elasticsearch on the IBM mainframe, using IBM Java. Does anyone have an estimate on when the 1.7.0 release will be completed? I have had better luck with the master branch than the earlier releases. Also [https://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/JavaBugs](https://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/JavaBugs) doesn't list a JIRA issue for the index corruption bug with IBM J9. Is there any update on that? Is the corruption still happening with current versions of J9? Should we open a JIRA issue to track the index corruption bug? ---

Mike wrote a very nice article on [Lucene and JVM bugs](https://www.elastic.co/blog/lucene-jvm-bugs) and there is a section dedicated to "IBM's J9 JDK joins the fun" which has a link to the list of outstanding issues in the IBM JDK which makes it not ready for prime-time from Lucene's point of view. ---

Hi, Any luck doing this? Are you trying to pull the data from the MF using logstash or another mechanism? We are trying to do the same thing. Thank you! ---

@jpmackl, you might be interested in my reply to the topic “[Logstash for Mainframes](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/logstash-for-mainframes/58378)”. ---
