    Hello Ernst,

    Db2 for z/OS development has reviewed this enhancement request and would like to seek more information from you.

    We would like to understand the background reason for this request. Is this a part of simplification for buffer pool allocation? for example, user specifies max bpool size of 100GB, and Db2 to distribute the pool size as needed? Or you would simply want to have additional cap in each subsystem?

    Thank you.
