POOLDISK Record

Use the POOLDISK record to identify the virtual address of the minidisk that is to store resource pool files.

POOLDISK vaddr

The resource pool minidisk must be a CMS minidisk formatted in 1K-, 2K-, or 4K-byte blocks. The amount of space required depends on the number of resource pools defined and the number of tapes defined in each pool. Each resource pool, which is stored as a CMS file with the filetype TAPEPOOL, contains one 80-byte record for each tape that belongs to the pool. There can be only one resource pool minidisk, and you cannot use it for any other purpose.
