The predefined situations in this category monitor storage analysis. The description and formula for this situation follow.
Consider increasing the size of the CICS region and make the DSA larger. Increase the region size only if the Region Overview report shows adequate LSQA to support the change. It is also worth checking the current OSCOR usage. If the DSA size cannot be increased, consider reducing the CICS MAXTASK value.
Formula
If the value of the attribute Percent_Used is greater than 70 and the value of the attribute Percent_Used is less than or equal to 90 and the value of the attribute Area equals DSA
Consider increasing the size of the CICS region and make the DSA larger. Increase the region size only if the Region Overview report shows adequate LSQA to support the change. It is also worth checking the current OSCOR usage. If the DSA size cannot be increased, consider reducing the CICS MAXTASK (MXT) value.
Formula
If the value of the attribute Percent_Used is greater than 90 and the value of the attribute Area equals DSA
Increase EDSALIM in the CICS System Initialization Table. The Storage Analysis report will provide an overview of storage availability with in each constituent EDSA. For task and CICS component storage usage, consult the storage displays offered by OMEGAMON XE for CICS.

The reported pagepool has experienced more than one Short-On-Storage condition. Use the storage displays of Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for CICS on z/OS to locate tasks using a large amount of DSA. Verify that their storage requests are reasonable. To determine if a given task is hung in a storage control request, go to the Transaction Analysis workspace, and look at the Wait Type field. Consider using the CICS CEMT transaction or the Tivoli OMEGAMON XE for CICS on z/OS KILL option to purge the offending task.
Formula
If the value of the attribute CICSplex_Pagepool_Details.SOS_occurrences is greater than 1
