VMS Help Sys Parameters, ACP_SYSACC *Conan The Librarian |
ACP_SYSACC sets the number of directory file control blocks
(FCBs) that are cached for disks mounted with the /SYSTEM
qualifier. Each directory FCB contains a 16-byte array containing
the first letter of the last entry in each block of the directory
(or group of blocks if the directory exceeds 16 blocks). Since
entries in a directory are alphabetical, the cached FCB provides
quick access to a required directory block. This parameter value
should be roughly equivalent to the number of directories that
are in use concurrently on each system volume. It might be
overridden on a per-volume basis with the /ACCESSED qualifier
to the DCL command MOUNT. The value should be kept low in systems
with small physical memory and little file activity, because
the FCBs require a significant amount of space in the nonpaged
dynamic pool.
Too small a value causes excessive XQP I/O operations, while too
large a value causes excessive physical memory to be consumed by
the FCB caches.
ACP_SYSACC is an AUTOGEN and DYNAMIC parameter.
