Hi,

A site uses different size local page DS.
say most are 200K TRK , but 1 is 10K TRK.
normal :      15%                 70%  used  
problem:     60-70%              95%  

I said it's best to use same-size DS & have usage of under 30% (each DS), but 
it was rejected as old-recommendation.

Sometimes they get IRA205I.

MSG actually says:
... When utilization exceeds 30%, the slot allocation algorithms become less 
efficient, 
and may degrade I/O performance.  

Is this ROT still apply: 
 same size local PAGE DS
 < 30% used 

Is there any HW feature (DASD/HPAV/ton-of-cache/ton-of-this/that/etc), where 
this ROT should be ignored?

TIA,
Rez
