Page data sets volume 1 - The recommended types of data sets for this
volume are:
  PLPA (one-cylinder allocation)
  COMMON


 Note: Unless your system is central-storage constrained, and has
significant PLPA paging activity, there is little or no performance impact
to combining the PLPA and COMMON page data sets. The PLPA data set should
be allocated first, as a one-cylinder data set, with the COMMON data set
allocated second, immediately following the PLPA data set on the same
volume. The size of the COMMON data set should be large enough to contain
both PLPA and COMMOND pages.

This causes the vast majority of PLPA pages to be written to the COMMOND
page data set during IPL. This allows the operating system to use the
chained CCWs within a single data set and improves performance when both
data sets are on the same volume.

The message (ILR005E PLPA PAGE DATA SET FULL, OVERFLOWING TO COMMON DATA
SET) during IPL can be ignored when the PLPA and COMMON page data sets are
on the same volume.
