Do you have support with Novell? If so, you can simply use YAST to bring down the latest and greatest of anything in the release. If not, support is pretty cheap - on the order of $5K per year, and it gives you upgrade rights. -Paul - Original Message - From: Austin, Alyce (CIV)

Steve, It sounds like you're a little confused about what Q XSTORE [MAP] reports. In your current situation, you correctly point out that no XSTORE is attached to any user. What this means is that it's all available to CP for its two uses: primary page space and minidisk cache (MDC).

Re: Extended storage question.

2006-10-24 Thread Steve Gentry
You are correct, DASD paging is near 0. The only reason to attach XSTORE to a user is if that user can actually do something with it. So, are you saying that DB2, VMSERVS, VMSERVU, etc, need to have some XSTORE attached to them so that they will use it? On our system, these users have a USER

XC is/was required for SFS servers only if you want to make DIRC directories eligible for dataspaces. It has nothing to do with XSTORE.  And if I read the book correctly, XA or ESA should trump XC. Use XC mode if you want to exploit data spaces (SFS). For VMSERVS and VMSERVU, the
