2 Unit objectives After completing this unit, you should be able to: Explain the different kinds of storage in a z/os system, their organization, and management Describe how batch work is passed to a z/os system and how it is handled and processed Indicate how data and programs are organized and stored in an z/os environment

3 Storage management Storage management Workload management Batch job management Data management Already coverd in another chapter

4 System z9 and zseries server storage, real and auxiliary z/architecture 64-bit address Currently, maximum 128 GB Central storage Addressable in 2 64 bytes Auxiliary Storage

5 Virtual storage z/architecture 64-bit address Address spaces Central storage Data spaces Auxiliary Storage Hiper spaces

6 Virtual storage usage Programs and data Address spaces Address spaces Data spaces Data only Hiper spaces May be Common area (for all users) Private area (for this user)

7 Address space layout z/os 64-bit tri-modal addressing 64-bit High storage The bar 31-bit The line Common Area Private 24-bit Area 0 Note: Not to scale. 8+ billion traditional address spaces in one 64-bit address space. (billion = million million) High Private Area Extended Private Area Extended Common Area 16 EB K - kilo M - mega G -giga T - tera P - peta E -exa GB Above storage 16 MB

8 How virtual storage works Virtual storage is divided into 4-kilobyte pages Transfer of pages between auxiliary storage and real storage is called paging When a requested address is not in real storage, an interruption is signaled and the system brings the required page into real storage z/os uses tables to keep track of pages Dynamic address translation (DAT) Frames, pages, slots are all repositories for a page of information

9 How virtual storage works (continued )

Paging - Pages, Frames, and Slots The pieces of a program executing in virtual storage must be moved between real and auxiliary storage: A block of real storage is a frame.

10 Paging - Pages, Frames, and Slots The pieces of a program executing in virtual storage must be moved between real and auxiliary storage: A block of real storage is a frame. A block of virtual storage is a page. A block of auxiliary storage is a slot. A page, a frame, and a slot are all the same size: 4096 bytes (4 kilobytes). To the programmer, the entire program appears to occupy contiguous space in real storage at all times.

37 Unit summary Key points from this unit: z/os supports central, auxiliary, and virtual storage, in 64-bit mode. Storage is allocated in 4 KB blocks: Central storage - frame Auxiliary storage - slot Virtual storage - page Batch work is defined to the system with JCL and is executed in an initiator address space. Data and programs are stored in data sets. Data sets are either VSAM or non-vsam.
