To calculate the user area capacity of a CV whose capacity unit is defined as blocks:

ceiling(user-specified-CV-capacity / 2)

where

  • The value enclosed in ceiling( ) must be rounded up to the nearest whole number.
  • user-specified-CV-capacity is expressed in blocks.
  • The resulting user area capacity is expressed in kilobytes.

To calculate the entire capacity of a CV:

ceiling(user-specified-CV-capacity / (boundary-value * 2)) 
* (boundary-value * 2)

where

  • The value enclosed in ceiling( ) must be rounded up to the nearest whole number.
  • user-specified-CV-capacity is expressed in blocks.
  • boundary-value is expressed in kilobytes.
  • The resulting entire capacity is expressed in blocks. To convert the resulting entire capacity into megabytes, divide this capacity by 2,048.
  • Set a block that can be divided by (boundary-value x 2) so that the entire capacity of a CV is not corrected.
