Is there a formula for the size of page datasets based on the size of
the LPAR ?
----------------------------<unsnip>------------------------------
I dson't know of any hard-and-fast formula, but there are some
guidelines in the Init & Tuning manuals.
I typically give 1/3 of a 3390-3 volume for a single paging dataset,
populating the remainder of the volume with low-use datasets. I also
plan on being ready to add at least two more page datasets of similar
size, in case of an emergency that might arise due to shortages.
Running roughly 300 address spaces, I found that four of these page
datasets was about right, with no more than 50% utilization of any one
of them.
