room on LDEV 1 for all the SLT files. The FOS files do not have to go onto LDEV 1.
IMPORTANT Values for Express and PowerPatch 6.5 versions are given in the Read Before
Installing for each release after C.65.00.
There are several conditions under which you need additional non-contiguous disk space.
Refer to the appropriate following subsection for information on estimating non-contiguous
disk space for your specific task.
• Updating your system software.
• Adding-on new SUBSYS products to your system software.
• Applying PowerPatch to your system software.
• Applying Reactive patches to your system software.
• Distributing Staging Area to a remote system.
Disk Space Estimate for Updating
To estimate the amount of additional permanent (net) non-contiguous disk space required
to update your system software, subtract the value for your current version from the value
for the version you are updating to.
Record the disk space sectors required for the Update on your checklist.
Disk Space Estimate for Add-on
The values are listed in Table 3-1. on page 56 “Non-Contiguous Disk Space Requirements,”
for the SUBSYS (purchasable subsystem products) are the maximum for all possible
purchasable products.
Estimate purchased product (SUBSYS) disk space based on the number and kind of
software subsystem products that you purchased.
If you are not adding-on any new purchased products, the disk space sectors currently
being used by your existing products will remain the same.
