Creating objects in a nonlibrary user auxiliary storage pool

When you create an object in a nonlibrary user ASP, the library for the object must exist in the system ASP. For example, to create a save file in a nonlibrary user ASP, type the following command:

CRTSAVF FILE(SAVFLIB/DSTSAV) ASP(4)

In this command, 4 is the number of the user ASP where you are placing the save file. The library for the save file is in the system ASP and ASP 4 does not contain any libraries.

After the object is created, all storage for the object resides in the designated user ASP. Changes and additions to that object are also made in the user ASP. If the ASP becomes full, it overflows into the system ASP.

It is suggested that all journals and journal receivers on the system have unique names. The Reclaim Storage (RCLSTG) command renames them if duplicate names are found when objects are placed in library QRCL and the user cannot rename them to their original name.

Monitor the size of objects to prevent them from overflowing into the system ASP with the MAXRCDS parameter on the Create Save File (CRTSAVF) command, and the THRESHOLD parameter on the Create Journal Receiver (CRTJRNRCV) command.
