Matan, The display you gave is for real storage use. You need the virtual storage view for the common areas. RMF monitor III has this display. By itself an overflow from SQA/ESQA to CSA/ECSA is not a problem. That is so long as you have ample room in CSA/ECSA to accommodate it. If the overflow is for SQA to CSA you are talking about areas with limited size below the line. Just increases the size of either may reduce your private area below the line by 1 megabyte. So in this case I would do serious investigation of why the increase. Most use of common has been move above the line. If the overflow is from ESQA to ECSA then your ECSA is probably big enough to handle it. If you do not have a lot of free space in ECSA already then increase at the next IPL. If you have an address space that requires a large extended private (such as DB2 with SAP) then be careful not to reduce extended private too much. If you continue to have an overflow then you may want to also increase ESQA (although this is not essential). Note that some overflow pages may hang around until the next IPL even though the total ESQA requirement has gone down. This is because the requester of the overflow pages is still using them. So the message in itself is not a problem. It should trigger you to investigate more as detailed above.
