SWA is another candidate, but don't just move it up across the board without some testing. Above the line can cause problems there.

You need enough SQA to get up and running. I would have no issue with trying half of the existing SQA CSA has become pretty stable, with most of the growth in ECSA. With this in mind, I would feel comfortable reducing CSA by as much as 25% to start. Have you moved UCBs above the line? Look at other MVS areas that are optionally movable.

Due to some storage issues we've had recently with old 24 bit programs, I am revisiting our common storage configuration - CSA and SQA. Taking fragmentation into account, it appears that I'm using about 38% of my allocated SQA and about 46% of my allocated CSA. So I'm wondering if anybody has a good feel as to what a "good" percentage of used versus allocated space for these areas is. How low can I safely go in free space in these areas if we decide we want to try to eke out an additional MB of below-the-line private? Our current private size is 11MB.
