SHOW PROCESS Quota Screen

Lester_Dreckow — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 08:23:44 GMT

Hi all,

I'm interested in what determines the 50000 for PGFL quota limit shown in SHOW PROCESS/CONT Quota screen. I expected it to line up with UAF PGFLQUO or SYSGEN PQL_?PGFLQUOTA.

The real problem? I was actually wondering why this was page faulting so much when the UAF WSEXTENT was set faily high. Perhaps WSQUOTA should be set much higher?

(I know, the SYSTEM username is overkill - this is a test system.)

The outputs are attached (I know, the SYSTEM username is overkill - this is a test system).

Thanks, Lester

Sorry, it is 500000.

"PGFL quota count/limit 383751/500000"

Lester,

from the SYSUAF display for SYSTEM:

Pgflquo: 8,000,000

This is in pagelets (i.e. 512 byte units).

The value of 500,000 in the SHOW PROCESS display is in pages.

On your system 1 page = 8K = 16 pagelets.

This is why you are seeing this value.

Thanks Duncan, Ah yes, pages vs pagelets.

Cheers.
