The specification for these parameters is in Kbytes.  Since there are 4
Kbytes in a page, your bufferpool numbers jive.  If you want to have 2048
pages, specify 8192 in the opt file.  I can't explain the log pool numbers.
 There was a bug about reporting of the log pool pages.  It seems that the
pages get divided into read pages and write pages and only one of the
counts was being reported.  I believe the bug is fixed in the lastest
server ptfs.

Subject: bufpoolsize and logpoolsize values not honored?

When I change the BUFPOOLSIZE and LOGPOOLSIZE parameters in DSMSERV OPT
on DSMSERV's 191/A-disk, I don't see the change reflected in command
outputs (Q DB F=D, Q LOG F=D).

For example, my current entries are

   bufpoolsize 2048
   logpoolsize 512

Yet the Query commands report

        Buffer Pool Pages: 512"
and
           Log Pool Pages: 6
       Log Pool Pct. Util: 3.47

(at the moment).

Thanks in advance,
