Notes:

The management area capacity of a mainframe volume is expressed in cylinders (Cyl).

For a Compatible FlashCopy SE volume with a 3390-A emulation type, if you specify a value between 1 and
40,068 cylinders, the space required equals the sum of the specified value and 252 of 40,069 cylinders or more,
calculate the required free space with this formula:

40,320 cylinders + the value rounded up after the decimal point of *A × 1,120 cylinders

where *A = (the specified value - 40,068) ÷ 1,113 cylinders
