Ed, Since we're finally getting to PAV, would you please expand on the problem/issue, e.g. how many PAVs and how much of an increase to the initial SQA?
I honesty don't remember the specifics after so many years (we upgraded to ESS (2105-800) from RVA in 2002). But, the phenomenon is documented in APAR II12396:
OS/390 V2 R6 and above: SQA Space Shortage During NIP: During NIP processing, it is possible that the system's minimum allocation for SQA and extended SQA might be depleted before NIP processes the SQA parameter. To avoid this situation, you can increase the minimum SQA and/or extended SQA allocations, using the INITSQA parameter in LOADxx. (See OS/390 MVS Initialization Tuning Reference for information on the INITSQA parameter.) --------------------------------------------------- This type of storage exhaustion has been seen when adding ESS d/t2105 subsystems, since this subsystem typically requires the addition of many devices. FWIW, our LOADxx contains the following: INITSQA 0000K 1536K -- Edward E Jaffe Phoenix Software International, Inc 5200 W Century Blvd, Suite 800 Los Angeles, CA 90045 310-338-0400 x318 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.phoenixsoftware.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
