Hello, last week, checking a system with performance problems, I detected the customer has the parameter em/initial_size_MB (extended menory), in my opiniion, too high
The history of the parameter shows that the maximum ext. mem. reached is quite lower than the size of em/initial_size_MB parameter
Some colleages in Spain say it is not a problem, because SAP doesn't lock the extended memory not used, so the iSeries can use it
I'm not sure because if my colleages are true, then we always should give a very high value to em/initial_size_MB
SAP version is ECC 6.0 and iSeries version is V6R1
Does the parameter em/initial_size_MB lock or reserve the memory so the iSeries can't use it?
I've read oss 808.607, but I don't see my question clearly answered
Thanks in advance, Ximo Escobedo,
IBM Spain
