Well, in theory, I guess it's 
        (real storage)+(page space)-(real system requirements)
but that's cutting it close to the line. So it's more like 
        (real storage)*n
where n is the overcommit ratio, as Scott Rohling indicated -- likely no more 
than 3x in production, probably closer to 2x.

If you're thinking "Ginormous zEnterprise with 3TB of real and one z/VM 
system", do the math:
240 x 48GB* = 11TB, if I'm doing it right. So you're "OK", FSVO "OK".

Let us know how that baby runs, eh?

* 48GB = 65530*180*4096
