• The boundary value is expressed in kilobytes. The boundary value depends on volume
emulation types and RAID levels (see Table 28 on page 138).
NOTE: A mainframe volume’s management area capacity is expressed in cylinders.
NOTE: An open-system volume’s management area capacity is expressed in kilobytes.
NOTE:
• The xx is a variable indicating one or more numbers or letters.
• Boundary values are expressed in kilobytes.
