/SIZE=n When /SIZE=n is specified for a magnetic disk, n specifies the size (in blocks) of the logical volume (the space available for the file system). This allows you to INITIALIZE a disk with a file system size that is less than the physical volume size, which can be useful if you plan to create a shadow set using this disk and a smaller physical disk. The value of n is displayed (in blocks) as "Logical Volume Size" in the output from a SHOW DEVICE/FULL command. For DECram disks, /SIZE specifies the size (in blocks) of the disk (device type DT$_RAM_DISK) to be allocated from available memory. The size of the device is created at disk initialization time. To deallocate space, specify /SIZE=0. All resources specifically allocated to the DECram disk are returned to the system. Note that n cannot exceed 524,280 blocks on versions of DECram prior to Version 2.3. DECram Version 2.3 running on an Alpha system supports up to 67,108,864 blocks, equivalent to 32GB.
