DBWP= parameter for procedures

Use the DBWP= parameter in procedure to specify the amount of subpool 231 storage to be allocated to the database work area pool.

The value can be specified as either 1- to 6-numeric characters, or 1- to 5-numeric characters followed by either K (kilobyte), M (megabyte), or G (gigabyte). If K, M, or G is not specified, K is the default. The maximum value is 2G-1. If the value specified exceeds 2G-1, the default is 2G-1. The pool size that is specified is rounded up to the nearest page boundary.

If the logical record size is greater than 8K, the DBWP size must be specified as the largest logical record size times the number of active regions.

If the logical record size is less than 8K, the DBWP size must be specified as 8K times the number of active regions.

Note: During DL/I database OPEN/CLOSE processing in a non-batch environment, DL/I separate address space (DLISAS) E-private storage is used instead of the database work area pool.
