Explanation: MAXIMUM(Kbytes) is an optional subparameter of the CSALIMITS parameter specifying the maximum number of KBs of CSA storage to be allocated to MWEs. For Kbytes, specify a 2- to 5-character decimal number indicating the number of bytes of CSA storage to be allocated to MWEs. You can specify a value from 10 to 16383. If you specify 16384 or higher, no limiting of the number of bytes allocated in CSA is done. If the value for MAXIMUM is exceeded, DFSMShsm fails all new requests until CSA usage drops below the maximum limit or you change the value for MAXIMUM.
SMS relationship: Parameter has the same meaning when applied to SMS-managed or non-SMS-managed DASD volumes or data sets.
SETSYS default: None.
DFSMShsm default: If you do not specify this subparameter on any SETSYS command, the DFSMShsm default is 100.
