Define buffer size (ALLOCATE-BUFFER-POOL)

The ALLOCATE-BUFFER-POOL statement defines the size of the used buffer pool in Mbytes.

This statement may be optionally omitted (if the default value is desired); otherwise, it must be specified as the first statement.

ALLOCATE-BUFFER-POOL

BUFFER-SIZE = *STD / <integer 1..2000>

BUFFER-SIZE = *STD
The standard size of the buffer pool is defined as 1 Mbyte.

BUFFER-SIZE = <integer 1..2000>
The size of the buffer pool must lie within the given limits. The maximum value depends on the version of the operating system and the configuration of working memory in the system.

The value for ADDRESS-SPACE-LIMIT must be greater than the value specified here. The appropriate value can be set by the system administrator with the MODIFY-USER-ATTRIBUTES command.
