Hello, I have a question regarding PAGTOTL parameter. Our setting is set at PAGTOTL=(20). We currently have 12 local page datasets defined at IPL. We would like to add 4 additional local page data sets from a new DASD pool. Then Page Delete/Drain the original 12. This is necessary because of a DASD migration we are in the process of. We will then "add" 12 new volumes from the new DASD pool. Lastly, delete the four we added at the beginning.
My question is this: Does the PAGTOTL value reflect a cumulative number of page adds? Technically we will be adding 16 page volumes, in addition to the 12 that were there at IPL. This total value along with the original 12 exceeds the PAGTOTL=(20) value. After reviewing both the Init/Tuning guide and the MVS Commands manuals, I came away with the idea that PAGTOTL is a value the reflects the total number of page data sets that can be in use at any one time during the IPL. However I just wanted to make sure.
