Re: Reclaim storage - time estimation

I thought that I read some place (here?) that the estimate was based upon previous RCLSTG runs. I.e., the first run under v5r4 either wouldn't yield a SWAG or it would just be a WAG.

Could be wrong; haven't done one myself one our v5r4 system.

Now see if your customer was running v5r4 instead of an unsupported release....

All you'd have to do is RCLSTG ESTIMATE(*YES) and you'd have your answer :)

Subject: Reclaim storage - time estimation

Hi,


We have a client using a 3-year-old model 810 (V5R2M0) with 316 Gb disks
and 3Gb memory. The last IPL on this machine was over a year ago and a
reclaim storage has never been done till now.


Now I'm going to load the latest PTF Cumpack and I was thinking this
might be a good time to do a Reclaim Storage (RCLSTG), however I'm a bit
concerned about my time-frame. Can anyone give me an estimation of how
long a RCLSTG (might) take ?
