Type Definition
Description refers to the area that contains a list of unused frames.

The approach to handling the overflow table in D3 varies greatly from R83. The overflow table is now handled as a b-tree, rather than as a finite set of overflow table entries.

It is possible to set a "reserve" block of overflow, in case the system runs out of disk (see "set-ovf-reserve").

Most importantly, the overflow table can be rebuilt if it should become necessary (see "rebuild-ovf").
