U7SPACE Macro

The U7SPACE macro lets you override the default space allocation parameters to use for the CA WA CA 7 Edition data sets. The following defaults may not be right for your installation.

Note: For more information about the sizes of the various CA WA CA 7 Edition data sets, see the Systems Programming Guide.

The U7SPACE macro is optional.

This macro has the following format:

[name]    U7SPACE  [keyword=(p,u),]
                   [keyword=(p,u),...]

name

(Optional) Indicates a one- to eight-character, user-defined label.

U7SPACE

Must be specified as shown.

keyword=(p,u)

(Optional) The keywords, their default values and a description of the associated CA WA CA 7 Edition data sets are provided in the following table. The format of the subparameters is (p,u), where:

p: Specifies the primary quantity of space units. (No secondary quantity is used.)
u: Specifies the space units (for example, TRK, CYL, Annnn). If you allocate space by absolute track, use the Annnn format. nnnn indicates the absolute track location.

If the U7SPACE macro is coded, provide at least one keyword. The following chart shows the keywords available.

Keyword	Default	Description
AGENT	5,CYL	Agent VSAM file
BATCHI	5,TRK	Batch input data set
BATCHO	10,CYL	Batch output data set
BROWSE	5,CYL	Browse data set
CKPT	1,CYL	Checkpoint data set
COMM	4,CYL	Communications data set
LOGP	10,CYL	Primary log
LOGS	10,CYL	Secondary log
STAT	750,1024	Statistics file
SUBMT1	1,CYL	Submit data set number 1 (see note)
SUBMT2	1,CYL	Submit data set number 2 (see note)
SUBMT3	1,CYL	Submit data set number 3 (see note)
SUBMT4	1,CYL	Submit data set number 4 (see note)
SUBMT5	1,CYL	Submit data set number 5 (see note)
SUBMT6	1,CYL	Submit data set number 6 (see note)
XCFDS	3,CYL	XCF data set
XCFKPT	1,TRK	XCF checkpoint data set
XCKPT	2,TRK	Checkpoint data set for Tracker (CA WA CA 7 Edition XTRK)

Note: Submit data sets are only required for shared DASD, nonshared JES spool environments. Most installations use the internal reader. See the U7PARMS macro, NSUBMT keyword.
