Products

• ESP Workload Automation

Issue/Introduction

Is there a more precise way to determine the proper value? Is there a display you can use to determine APPLBUF usage?

Environment

Release: ALL
Component: ESP Workload Automation

Resolution

 The APPLBUF size can be from 16376 to 8388600. As a rough estimate, there are approximately 512 bytes per job.

The default APPLBUF sizes for a given slotsize are:

    4k slots=1048568           
    8k slots=2093048       
    12k slots=3137528       
    16k slots=4182008  

Applications bigger that 4 megs require a slot size of at least 8k. If you are using ESP Encore, the APPLBUF must not be less than 1044480 bytes. You may be able to get the APPLBUF usage by issuing OPER LISTAPTF command:
