I need some lesson on reducing Common Area below the 16M line.
Anyone can give me some 101 on increasing the private area size below 16M line ?
Or any guides or manual will help me to embark on this ?

First you need to determine the actual size of your private area and common areas below the line.

Look at any SVC dump on your system using IPCS. Selection Option 2.6I. From that list select 'VSMINFO'. You will see a virtual storage map similar to the one I've pasted below from one of my systems.

To increase the private area, you need to move MAX USER REGION ADDR up by one 1 
MB.

As you can see, my MAX USER REGION ADDR (and CSA BOTTOM) is x'B00000' and PLPA BOTTOM is x'D2D000'. The size of my CSA is therefore x'22D000' or 2228K. My CSA= specification is IEASYSxx is CSA=(1536,81920) so I was given an additional 698K of CSA due to rounding.

So, if I were to increase my private area 1 MB (1024K) by donating CSA, I would need to reduce my CSA specification to CSA=(1204,81920). You can also donate from anything below R/W NUC BOTTOM such as SQA, PLPA, FLPA and MLPA.
