ABSTRACT:
In a data processing system, a hardware system area ("HSA") storage is associated with the hardware configuration of the system. A change in the system hardware configuration typically corresponds to a change in HSA size. Upon determination of the requirement for, for example, increasing the size of HSA, a region of storage is freed from use as central storage or expanded storage. The freed region is incorporated into the data processing system as HSA storage. The process may be reversed to reduce the size of HSA by converting a region of HSA into either central storage or expanded storage.
