Size guidelines for the workspace data sets
Specify the size of a workspace data set with the FILESIZE keyword
on the TARGET command. Some guidelines to follow are:
- If your RACF® administrators submit large batch jobs containing hundreds or thousands of commands, you'll need larger workspace data sets.
- If you expect nodes in your RRSF network to be dormant for long periods of time, you'll need larger workspace data sets.
- If one of your RRSF nodes takes an unusually long time to IPL, nodes that communicate with it will need larger workspace data sets.
- If you plan to have a node down for a few hours for a hardware upgrade, nodes that communicate with it will need larger workspace data sets.
