Geert,
Also played 'what if" with the HSA Estimator tool, determined 2GB would be the magic number for us (includes some added room for Dynamic updates). Ours is a z9 EC 2 book, OSA channels are spanned, hipersockets are spanned, ICP are a mix of spanned and shared, 13 LPARs, 2 LCSS, all escon, no ficon. YMMV.
Regards, Doug

Subject: HSA size on Z9 BC


Hi,

We have been talking to Santa recently and *maybe* this time he will bring us a z9.

But I've been told that the HSA on a z9 can be quite large, compared to the current 128 MB on the z800. So I've been playing with the "HSA Estimator tool for z9 BC v2.9.1" on Resource Link. The minimum HSA-size the tool predicts (specifiyng 0 devices, no dynamics, no hypersockets) is no less than 1216 MB. Using more realistic numbers for devices etc., I get a HSA size of 1536MB (1,5 GB!). Which is *huge*, compared to the z800.

Are these sizes realistic? Can anyone using a z9 give me an indication of the HSA-size on their machines?

Thanks!
Geert.
