... I was mentioned several times. Yes, there is no enough DASD storage to page all 64-bit A/S. AFAIK MVS still menas Multiple Virtual Space (Multiple = 32k), so you can multiply your abstract number by 32k and that way get more abstract number ...
I still think that this argument is specious. There has always been more space on DASD on the floor than installed on a processor. IE: at a former shop we had a total of 32 GB of mainframe memory installed. We had 26 TB of DASD installed. We had five images with 4 full-pack 3390-3 locals each. Giving us another 56 GB of virtual. The data on disk is always going to out-strip the data in memory. The architecture to support this kind of storage with the expected growth is going to fail (in its current incarnation) long before we can exploit a full 64-bit address space. -teD In God we Trust!
