<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">What can I do with this system value?</h4><p>You may specify
the minimum size of the base memory pool in megabytes (MB). A memory pool
is a logical division of memory (storage) that is reserved for processing
a job or group of jobs. The base memory pool contains all memory not allocated
by other pools. This pool is specified in the subsystem description as *BASE.</p>
<p>In
some circumstances, a machine function may be using storage allocated to the
base pool. If this is so, and if the change to the system value would reduce
the allocation to less than 256 KB (kilobytes) plus the amount needed by the
machine, the system value is changed immediately. However, the actual base
pool size will not be reduced below 256 KB plus the amount needed by the machine
until the storage in use is released by the machine.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Where can I get more information about this system value?</h4><p>To
learn more, go to the performance system values overview topic. If you are
looking for a specific system value or category of system values, try using
the i5/OS system
value finder.</p>
