(RE)

Stream: zP&C
Time: 10:00 - 10:45


Presentation

Dedicated Memory is a new new function that provides the ability for the system administrator to define an amount of real storage that can be directly assigned to job steps and allows utilization of >4TB for applications that do not exploit 2GB frames. Learn from the speaker’s experience testing this new capability, including operational considerations, how it can impact things like available frame counts and LFAREA, as well as new metrics available to monitor and measure its usage.
