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

•
Boundary values are expressed in kilobytes.
•
A SATA drive supports 3390-xx emulation types for a mainframe system.
•
Boundary values for RAID levels (other than Enhanced mode on SATA drives)
Boundary values of external volumes are always one slot, regardless of RAID levels.
