CHANGE CAPACITY 

Changes the capacity of a data set.

Syntax 

     CHA[NGE] CA[PACITY] DataSetName NewCapacity 

Parameters 

DataSetName         is the name of the data set whose capacity is to be
                    changed.

NewCapacity         is the new capacity of the data set.  It must be less
                    than 231 -1 (2,147,483,647), but cannot be less than
                    the current number of entries in the data set.

Description 

Use this command to change the capacity of a data set.  For performance
reasons, it is recommended that you do not use a number that is a power
of two for the capacity of a master data set.  The capacity must be a
number that can be evenly divided by the blocking factor.  If you change
the capacity to a number that cannot be evenly divided by the blocking
factor, DBChange Plus adjusts the specified capacity to the nearest
multiple of the blocking factor.


NOTE If a data set capacity is lowered below the greatest number of entries the data set has ever contained (the high-water mark), DBChange Plus displays a recommendation to use the REPACK SET command.
Example >change capacity inventory 503 In this example, the capacity of the data set INVENTORY is changed from 450 to 503. However, because 503 cannot be evenly divided by the blocking factor of 15, the capacity is automatically adjusted to the nearest multiple of the blocking factor, which is 510. Before the change, the INVENTORY data set entry in the schema looks like this: NAME: INVENTORY ,D(12/13,14,18); ENTRY: STOCK# ( PRODUCT ), ONHANDQTY , SUPPLIER (!SUP-MASTER ), UNIT-COST , LASTSHIPDATE ( DATE-MASTER ), BINNUM ; CAPACITY: 450(15); <---- capacity to be changed After the change, the INVENTORY data set entry in the schema looks like this: NAME: INVENTORY ,D(12/13,14,18); ENTRY: STOCK# ( PRODUCT ), ONHANDQTY , SUPPLIER (!SUP-MASTER ), UNIT-COST , LASTSHIPDATE ( DATE-MASTER ), BINNUM ; CAPACITY: 510(15); <---- capacity changed
