-----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] Namens Erik Janssen Verzonden: dinsdag 29 juni 2010 18:09 Aan: IBM-MAIN@BAMA.UA.EDU Onderwerp: Re: TSO region size Hello Tom, Your remark about the region parm triggered me to look up the possible values in the JCL reference. It says: REGION[.procstepname]={valueK}{valueM} valueK: 1 - 7 digits from 1 - 2096128 valueM: 1 - 4 digits from 1 - 2047 Specifies the amount of space in kilobytes or megabytes required by the step. Since the max valueM = 2047 and not 2048 I'm guessing that 2096128 does actually mean 2GB even though it is 1MB less. For some historical reason a region has always been assumed to be 1M ???? As a small response to your mail I would say that the z/OS nucleus, LPA, CSA and SQA are still part of my region (address space), just not my private region. Or is there a difference between region and address space....
