Memory Objects and High Virtual Storage Frames

Figure 1 shows a sample of the MEMORY OBJECTS AND HIGH VIRTUAL STORAGE FRAMES section if Enhanced DAT architecture is available. If Enhanced DAT architecture is not installed, no information about memory objects that can be backed in 1 MB frames is available. Also, no information about 1 MB frames is available and any fields in this section related to such memory objects or frames are not displayed.

All values in this section of the Paging Activity report are presented as MIN, MAX, and AVG values.

Table 1. Fields in the Paging Activity report - Memory Objects and High Virtual Storage Frames
Field Heading Meaning
MEMORY OBJECTS
COMMON
Number of memory objects allocated in the high virtual common storage of the system.
SHARED
