   '-WSTOR(nnn)-'   

Specifies, in megabytes, the maximum size of RMF's local storage buffer for the data gatherer. The size of buffer that the data gatherer gets is either the value specified in this option or the maximum GETMAIN size defined by the system, whichever is smaller.

The valid range value is 4 to 999. RMF™ uses a default of 32 if you do not specify a value. If you specify a value outside the valid range, RMF uses 999 megabytes for a value above the range and 4 megabytes for a value below the range.

RMF stores the set of samples collected during a MINTIME in its own local storage buffer. If you specify data set recording during a session, RMF copies each set of samples from the local storage buffer to the currently active data set for the session. Common data items for a set of samples (such as jobname or device name) are held in tables to reduce the amount of local storage needed.
Note:
  1. This option cannot be modified by the session command MODIFY.
  2. When you specify the WSTOR parameter, you must ensure that there is enough space on the page data set to accommodate a buffer of the specified size.
