Using Protected Address Spaces

You can use a portion of server memory called a protected address space to protect the server operating system from untried or troublesome applications and to use virtual memory. When applications are loaded into a protected address space, they can't corrupt the operating system, cause server abends, or corrupt other applications that are running in other protected address spaces.

All protected address spaces use virtual memory, so running modules in a protected address space also uses RAM more efficiently.

For general information about protected address spaces and the applications that can be loaded into them, see Protected Address Spaces. For general information about virtual memory, see Virtual Memory.
