CA ACF2 Worksheet

Use the following worksheet to calculate the necessary space requirements for the UNLOAD data set in CA ACF2.

Calculation of Space Allocation for UNLOAD Data Set

User Records

Use the following to calculate the total space for user records.

  1. Number of logonid records: _________________
  2. Number of user-defined fields: _________________

    Note: Skip this line if the user-defined fields are not being implemented.

  3. Total number of user-defined records: _________________

    Multiply the number of user-defined fields in the ACFFDR by number of logonid records.

    Note: Skip this line if the user-defined fields are not being implemented.

  4. Total number of profile records: _________________
  5. Total number of user records: _________________

    Add total number of user-defined records, or if user-defined fields are not being implemented, add the number of logonid records to the number of user profile records.

  6. Total space (bytes) needed for user records:

    Multiply total number of user records by 15,796 bytes.

  7. Total space (cylinders) needed for user records: _________________

    Divide total space (bytes) needed for user records by 849,960 bytes/cylinder.

Rule Records

Use the following to calculate the total space for rule records.

  1. Number of rules (data set, resource, and DB2): _________________
  2. Total space (bytes) needed for rules: _________________

    Multiply number of rules by 483 bytes.

  3. Total space (cylinders) needed for rules: _________________

    Divide total space (bytes) needed by rules by 849,960 bytes/cylinder.

Rule Lines

Use the following to calculate the total space for rule lines.

  1. Number of rule lines (data set, resource, and DB2): _________________
  2. Total space (bytes) needed for rule lines: _________________

    Multiply number of rule lines by 1,897 bytes.

  3. Total space (cylinders) needed for rule lines: _________________

    Divide total space (bytes) needed for rule lines by 849,960 bytes/cylinder.

Control Records

Use the following to calculate the total space for control records.

  1. Number of control records (DCO): _________________
  2. Total space (bytes) needed for control records:_________________

    Multiply number of control records by 1,990 bytes.

  3. Total space (cylinders) needed for control records: _________________

    Divide total space (bytes) needed for control records by 849,960 bytes/cylinder.

Total Space Needed for UNLOAD Data Set

  1. Total space (cylinders) needed for unload data set: _________________

    Add the total space (cylinders) for each type of record to calculate the total space required for the Unload data set.
