User Space

[Shepherd P Chacko <PCHACKO@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Sanjiv.

User spaces are objects that consist of a collection of bytes used for
storing user-defined information.  They are permanent objects that are
located in either the system domain or the user domain.  They have an
object type of *USRSPC and a maximum size of 16MB.  You can save and
restore user spaces to other systems. The following are the API used for
processing User Space
*       Change User Space (QUSCHGUS) API
*       Create User Space (QUSCRTUS) API
*       Delete User Space (QUSDLTUS) API
*       Retrieve User Space (QUSRTVUS) API

The advantages of User spaces are 
*       User spaces can be automatically extendable.
*       User spaces can be shared across jobs.
*       Store large amounts of data

Hope this will answer ur doubt.
