How to stop SHRLIBRGNSIZE being allocated from an Address Space?
explains (or hints at) why it could be so.

The mentioned post was on MVS-OE. Here it is:

In the context of running a Java application that has many DLLs, is
there any easy way to stop the BPXPRMxx SHRLIBRGNSIZE being allocated
from an Address Space when loading the first eligible DLL?

I know that I can stop it happening by removing the +l extended
attribute from every  DLL that is being used, but that is a messy
solution.

So what I want is to have no SHRLIBRGNSIZE allocated and  have the
eligible DLLs loaded into the Address Space without changing the
attributes.

Maybe someone out there has a neat solution?

I was surprised about this, too, as I don't remember having seen it on 
ibm-main. But I happen to know what it's all about :-)

SHRLIBRGNSIZE is great if you have one product on your lpar that has many many 
address spaces all using the same lmods. If the library those lmods come from 
is marked as 'sharable' (in quotes because that is some attribute that the 
unix/USS guys know about), the OMVS parm shrlibrgnsize comes into play. That is 
an area that OMVS reserves in each address space that uses any library marked 
sharable.

Okay, in our case shrlibrgnsize was 300MB because we have this 'Message Broker' 
thingy running with about 55-60 adddress spaces all with the same name and a 
number at the end :-). Then came along a java application in one address space 
(one meager java address space). Java is delivered with its lmods all marked 
sharable, so that java application basically lost 300MB of high private storage 
that was reserved because of 'the other' application that had nothing to do 
with java. Was desastrous, as that application needed 1GB heap. Once MQ came 
along and needed a little bit of its own heap (outside the java heap) the 
address space came crashing down with an 'out-of-memory' error.

We ended up removing the share attribute from java :-( and gained 300MB private 
for that java asid. As I said, a great parm, but not useful for completely 
different applications on the same lpar.

storage limit smf exit ?

2008-04-21 Thread Jim Nagy
Hi, our mvs staff has the smf exit to limit region size on jobs and I have
the CTG (cics transaction gateway) product from ibm and it will not start,
I believe because it needs more region storage.  Is is possible to add my
program to the exit without an IPL and have it go in dynamically?

You may be affected by an excessive and/or improper specification of
BPXPRMxx SHRLIBRGNSIZE(...) value.
No amount fiddling with IEFUSI would help in such a case.
