Common Storage attributes
The Common Storage attribute group displays information about four important areas of common storage: common service area (CSA), extended CSA, system queue area (SQA), and extended SQA (ESQA).
Allocation The amount of storage currently allocated for the area. For SQA and ESQA, under normal conditions, this value is the same as Total Size. If an overflow has occurred, then the value may exceed Total Size. A valid value is an integer.
Allocation Percent The amount of storage currently allocated as a percentage of total storage in this area. A valid value is an integer. The range for this value is from 0 to 100.
Area The name of the common storage area presented in this row of the table view. For SQA and ESQA, under normal conditions, this will be 100%. If an overflow has occurred, then the value may exceed 100%. A valid value is a string of up to 4 characters. Valid values are:
- CSA. Common Storage Area
- ECSA. Extended Common Storage Area
- SQA. System Queue Area
- ESQA. Extended System Queue Area
ESQA Overflow The amount of ESQA that has overflowed into the ECSA. A valid value is an integer.
Growth Growth in use during the last interval. A valid value is an integer.
In Use The amount of storage currently in use, not including the SQA or ESQA overflow. A valid value is an integer.
In Use Percent The amount of storage currently in use as a percentage of total storage. A valid value is a number to one decimal places accuracy. The range for this value is from 0 to 1500.
Initial Size Size of CSA and ECSA at IPL, before any CSA or ECSA conversion to SQA or ESQA. A valid value is an integer.
Managed System z/OS operating system in your enterprise that an OMEGAMON for z/OS agent is monitoring. A valid value is a string of up to 32 characters.
SQA Overflow The amount of SQA that has overflowed into the CSA. A valid value is an integer.
Total Size The total size of each area as specified at time of IPL or in the IEASYS member of the PARMLIB data set, minus any CSA/ECSA storage used by SQA/ESQA. A valid value is an integer.
