The storage for the HSA is separate from the "orderable" storage. This has been true for several hardware generations. AFAIK, this memory size if fixed and cannot be changed.
This has nothing to do with the OP's question. The OP wanted to know if there was any impact beyond replying to the warning WTOR @ IPL time if the storage allocated to the LPAR was < 8GB. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> On Behalf Of Parwez Hamid Sent: Monday, February 25, 2019 5:53 PM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Re: z/OS 2.3 Memory Requirements on z14 All Z systems have a certain amount of minimum memory for customer use in the base system configuration.

If required, customers can purchase extra memory up to the maximum limit for the System. z14 M/T 3906, Minimum = 256 GB, Standard HSA = 192 GB z14 M/T 3907, Minimum = 64 GB, Standard HSA = 64 GB z13 M/T 2964, Minimum = 64 GB, Standard HSA = 96 GB z13s M/T 2965, Minimum = 64 GB, Standard HSA = 40 GB For other systems, refer to announcement letters or Redbooks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ::DISCLAIMER:: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The contents of this e-mail and any attachment(s) are confidential and intended for the named recipient(s) only.
