for alternate blocks when primary cylinders in the user space are used up. See Subsections 3.1.2 and
3.3.2 for details.

The Internal test space is an area for diagnostic purposes only and its data block length is always
512KByte. The Internal test space consists of 8 cylinders and outer-host cylinder is always assigned.
The user cannot change the number of cylinders in the Internal test space or their positions.

3.1.2 Alternate spare area
The alternate spare area consists of the last track of each cell in the user space and an alternate
cylinder allocated to the last cylinder of each zone.
The spare area in each cylinder is placed at the end of the last track as shown in Figure 3.2. These
spare sectors are located in the end of the track logically, not necessarily located at the end physically
because of track skew or cylinder skew. (Details are explained on Subsection 3.1.3.)
Size can be specified by the MODE SELECT command.
The number of spare sectors per cylinder can be specified exceeding 32. The default for the spare
sectors number is 12.
