Is there any down side to increaseing the ECSA? We have a 2086-320 with 4gb
CS on the production LPAR. It currently looks like this:
CSA=(2000,64000)
DISPLAY STORAGE: A (B=BELOW A=ABOVE T=TOTAL) CSA SIZE: 63M
DATA FORMAT: P (K=KBYTES P=PERCENT) CSA FREE: 8.3%
I increased it on the test LPAR (about 3gb CS):
CSA=(2000,1000000)
and it looks like this:
DISPLAY STORAGE: A (B=BELOW A=ABOVE T=TOTAL) CSA SIZE: 977M
DATA FORMAT: P (K=KBYTES P=PERCENT) CSA FREE: 96.5%
The only disadvantage is reduced private area above the bar. It can be a
problem or not - it depends. It is more likely to have problems, when
CSA (below the line) is too big.
BTW: Why don't you increase ECSA *slightly* ?
My $0.02
