External LU's maximum usable capacity

Emulation type

695.98 GB

3390 mainframe emulation type

According to these restrictions, you can determine the external LU's maximum usable capacity for
each emulation type. When the mapped external LU's capacity is more than the maximum capacity
of the specified emulation type, a certain part of the external LU cannot be used.

Figure 70

shows the relationship of the minimum LDEV capacity, base LDEV capacity, minimum data

area capacity, base data area capacity, and control information area capacity.

Figure 70 LDEV capacity

Figure 71

shows how to determine the volume capacity using the example of the OPEN-3 case.

Table 26

lists the minimum data area capacity, base data area capacity, and control information

area capacity for each emulation type. For the OPEN-L emulation type, CVs cannot be created.
Therefore, the base data area capacity and minimum data area capacity for OPEN-L emulation type
