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 10 cylinders of the last zone in the user space.
The spare area in each cell 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 cell is fixed at 300. This number cannot be changed by users.
