Calculating CSD disk space

Before you can create the CSD, you must calculate the amount of space you need in your CSD for definition records. Use the following information:

In your calculation, allow for approximately 1200 CICS-supplied resource definitions of various types, which are loaded into the CSD when you initialize the CSD with the utility program, DFHCSDUP. Finally, add a suitable contingency (approximately 25%), and use your calculated figure when you define the VSAM cluster for the CSD. (See the sample job in Figure 11.)
