XP7 configuration with PAVs
An XP7 array configured for 2,048 mainframe volumes with 3 PAVs for each volume requires 32
LCUs, each with 64 base addresses and 192 PAV (alias) addresses.
Table 58 (page 102) lists a sample XP7 configuration with PAVs. All numbers are hexadecimal
unless noted otherwise.

The starting address is a hexadecimal number, and the range is a decimal number.

The SSID value is supplied by the system programmer.
NOTE: Each PAV address counts as an address on the XP7 array. The configuration of PAVs on
the mainframe depends on the mainframe model and the operating system version.
