Calculating licensed capacity for a normal volume
The calculation of the normal volume capacity depends on the volume emulation type. Use the
formula in the following table to estimate capacity for purchase. When you calculate the volume
capacity, round the value up to the second decimal place.
Table 21 Formulas for calculating capacity of a normal volume
Formula for calculating capacity of a normal volumeVolume emulation type
720 KB X (number of user cylinders)3380-x
870 KB X (number of user cylinders)3390-x
Same as the capacity specified when creating the volumeOPEN-x
Note: In the left column of this table, "x" indicates a number or a letter. For example, OPEN-x refers to emulation types
such as OPEN-3 and OPEN-V.
An example is shown in the following table:
