Calculate Audit Data Set Storage Requirements

Use the following formula to calculate the Audit data set storage requirements:

Cylinders = (1 + A) / RC
A

The number of Audit records.

RC

The number of records per cylinder for the device type and blocking factor.

Example: Audit Data Set Storage Requirements

In this example, the values are 100,000 Audit records (3390 - blocked):

(100,000+1) / 2160 = 47 cylinders
