Limit number of frames of real storage per job

2015-08-04 Thread Vlcek, Vitezslav Vit
Hi I would like to ask more experienced sysprogs regarding real storage manager. Is it possible to limit number of frames of real storage on job level? The MEMLIMIT/REGION parameters limit virtual memory of whole address space however I would like to limit the only real memory while the

MCCAFCTH is not applicable in this case. You are correct that this is a LPAR level control. The only out of the box solution I can think of is to run the job V=R' . See VRREGN in SYS1.PARMLIB(IEASYS00). NOTE: An IPL is*REQUIRED* to change this value. Of course, you could write a driver

Your test cannot be done by limiting the real storage of an individual job. Paging is done by the system in response to the real storage usage of the entire system. If you want to test the Java application is a storage constrained environment, you must make the system storage constraint. This

Thanks so much for this Kolusu - it works great...I did notice that I had different record counts in 2 of the 3 files, due to the SUM setting. This identified a problem in my data, which I was able to clean up at the same time. So all is now well! Have a great day - mine is already starting to be

1. IiRC, V=R is no longer supported. I could be wrong -- it happens sometimes. 2. The reason for the 'high' frame count is because the job needs‎ them. Limiting them, yourself if it were possible, would strangle the job. z/OS (srm/wlm) knows best as to who needs what and, in general, it's

I'm not sure if you can artificially limit the frames available, but I would expect that the effect of paging on a Java application would be BAD. Very bad. Java needs to perform regular garbage collection. Garbage collection is likely to touch most of the frames in the address space. It is

In some cases, the amount real storage occupied by an application can be influenced by the app itself. When we were rolling out DB2 V10, one smallish LPAR ran so short of real storage that it crashed. I even added some real storage to no avail. IBM finally recommended changes to DB2 run-time
