When to Use Disk Storage

If your system does not have enough core storage available, specify DISK. Very large sets, including integrated index sets, require a large SETLIMIT and, therefore, large amounts of storage for the tables. If you specify DISK, you must allocate space for two direct access files. These files are required for index processing whether or not you specify the DBKEYTBL parameter. See Operations for more information.
