<div><p>When you start a subsystem, the system attempts to allocate the
user-defined storage pools that are defined in the subsystem description of
the started subsystem.</p>
<div class="p">If the system cannot allocate all of the requested storage, it will allocate
as much storage as is available and then allocate the remainder of the storage
as it becomes available. For example, consider the following table. If 700KB
is available, and if *SHRPOOL2 is defined to 500KB, then 300KB is allocated
to the first storage pool and 400KB is allocated to the second storage pool.

<p>The storage pools that you define decrease the size of the
Base memory pool when they are allocated. The system only allocates as much
storage to a private pool as it has available in the Base memory pool. The
Base memory pool minimum size (QBASPOOL) system value determines the minimum
Base pool size.</p>
