Common service area (CSA/Extended CSA) z/OS MVS Initialization and Tuning Guide SA23-1379-02 |

This area contains pageable and fixed data areas that are addressable by all active virtual storage address spaces. CSA normally contains data referenced by a number of system address spaces, enabling address spaces to communicate by referencing the same piece of CSA data. CSA is allocated directly below the MLPA; extended CSA is allocated directly above the extended MLPA. If the virtual SQA space is depleted, the system will allocate additional SQA space from the CSA. Specified by:
Note: If the size allocated for extended SQA is too small or is used
up very quickly, the system attempts to steal space from extended
CSA. When both extended SQA and extended CSA are used up, the system
allocates space from SQA and CSA below 16 megabytes. The allocation
of this storage could eventually lead to a system failure. Ensuring
the appropriate size of extended SQA and extended CSA storage is critical
to the long-term operation of the system.
