I "believe" that there are CP commands to DEFINE new CP_OWNED slots dynamically. But I'm sitting on the couch typing on a Blackberry, so have not checked the CP Commands and Utilities manual. I'm getting older and could be misremembering.

I am adding the SLOTS for paging! You do believe there is a way to add the SLOTS on the fly?

No significant overhead in the 255 max slots. Changes will be effective at the next IPL, but I believe that there are dynamic CP commands to get you going without an IPL. Remember that you only need CP_Owned slots for volumes with CP space allocated thereon. Volumes with all PERM space do not need to be in the CP_Owned list.

I need to add more SLOTS in the SYSTEM CONFIG file I am assuming that it is as easy as duplicating existing reserved SLOTS. Is this a fair assumption? Also I believe the max number of SLOTS is 256 is this correct? One last thing is there any performance or other implications to be aware of when increasing the number of SLOTS? Thanks in advance for your help!!
