The V-VOL full allocation is performed in a range less than the depletion threshold size of the pool. If the capacity of V-VOLs is larger than the depletion threshold size, the full allocation operation is rejected.

Use these formulas to calculate the reserved page capacity for each pool. In the formulas, the value enclosed in ceiling( ) must be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

If CV capacity of V-VOL is between 1 (Cyl) and 113,525 (Cyl):

(ceiling ((CV-capacity-of-V-VOL-in-Cyl * 15 + ceiling(CV-capacity-of-V-VOL-in-Cyl / 1113) * 7 * 15) / 672) + 102 - ceiling(CV-capacity-of-V-VOL-in-Cyl / 1113) - ceiling(ceiling(used-capacity-of-V-VOL-in-blocks / 116) / 672)) * 672 * 116

If CV capacity of V-VOL is between 802,473 (Cyl) and 914,885 (Cyl):

(ceiling((CV-capacity-of-V-VOL-in-Cyl * 15 + ceiling(CV-capacity-of-V-VOL-in-Cyl / 1113) * 7 * 15) / 672) + 822 - ceiling(CV-capacity-of-V-VOL-in-Cyl / 1113) - ceiling(ceiling(used-capacity-of-V-VOL-in-blocks / 116) / 672)) * 672 * 116

If CV capacity of V-VOL is between 113,526 (Cyl) and 802,472 (Cyl), or 91,4886 (Cyl) or more:

(ceiling ((CV-capacity-of-V-VOL-in-Cyl * 15 + ceiling(CV-capacity-of-V-VOL-in-Cyl / 1113) * 7 * 15) / 672) - ceiling(ceiling(used-capacity-of-V-VOL-in-blocks / 116) / 672)) * 672 * 116
