As usual, what is reasonable depends. We use SPACE=(CYL,(500,100)) for SYSUTx, on disk not VIO. There does not appear to be any recommendation in the SMP/E manuals.

Hi, All, Just had a RECEIVE FROMNETWORK job crash SB37-04 on SYSUT4. The package being received is HJVA140 and current service. When I looked at the SYSUTn (n = [1 - 4]) DDDEFs for the z/OS 1.9 global zone, I saw they all had UNIT=VIO and SPACE=(3120,(760,760)), apparently "as delivered" with the z/OS 1.9 ServerPac. That seems incredibly tiny to me. Our 1.7 global has SYSUT4 at SPACE=(3120,(3040,3040)), but even that seems small. And we didn't SMP/E-install Java on 1.7, so I can't tell if that size is "reasonable" nowadays. "Obviously", SYSUT4 needs more that it has, but how much more? I should probably try to keep it in VIO, because we don't have a lot of empty DASD space allocated to the "sandbox". *********************************************************************** Bear Stearns is not responsible for any recommendation, solicitation, offer or agreement or any information about any transaction, customer account or account activity contained in this communication. *********************************************************************** ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
