Storage spaces (IBM i client disk units) should be between 80G and 500G.
80G or above due to minimum load source size for V7R2 and V7R3 if required PTFs/Technology Refresh doesn't exist
500G maximum due to STRASPBAL *MOVDTA limit (other limits include 1TB and 2TB for max sizes with single objects, VIOS if involved, etc...) - N1020633 http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1020633
