RSVNONR=nnnnnn
A non-reusable address space is one where a job that ended had been running in a cross memory environment. When such a job ends, the system ends the address space and marks its associated ASVT entry non-reusable (unavailable) until all of the address spaces the job had cross memory binds with have ended.
The value you choose for RSVNONR depends on what subsystems you are running, how often you restart the subsystems, and how often you IPL. The more subsystems you have, the higher the RSVNONR value must be. Frequent restarts of subsystems also require a higher RSVNONR value. Conversely, the more often you IPL, the lower the RSVNONR value needs to be. The ASIDs are reset each time you IPL. If you IPL frequently you are less likely to exhaust the available ASIDs, and you need not reserve as many entries in the address space vector table. For example, if you IPL once every three months, you need a RSVNONR value that is three times higher than if you IPL every month.
If started tasks or batch jobs that create non-reusable ASIDs end enough times, they will exhaust all available ASIDs and an IPL will be required. When loading the initial program is not an acceptable option, determine which programs caused the problems and fix them. For methods that prevent running out of ASIDs, see .
