how many buffers are allocated to vsam ksds and esds?..

Answer / Lalita Kumari

The number of buffers allocated to VSAM KSDS (Key Sequenced Datasets) and ESDS (Entry Sequenced Datasets) depends on the system parameters specified during dataset creation. The buffer pool, defined by a BUFFERPOOL statement in DD statements, contains a set of buffers that can be used by multiple datasets.
