Swapping journal receivers using iSeries Navigator

 

Swapping journal receivers replaces the current journal receiver with a new journal receiver that is automatically created and attached to the journal by the system. You can use two methods to swap receivers. The first method does not change the attributes of the new receiver; the second method does. If you select the first method, follow these steps:

1. From iSeries™ Navigator, expand the system you want to use.

2. Expand Databases.

3. Expand the database that you want to work with and Libraries.

4. Right-click the journal you want to use and click Swap Receivers.

   For this option, the system generates a new name when it creates the receiver, and you are not allowed to change the attributes of the new receiver.

If you select the second method, follow these steps:

1. From iSeries Navigator, expand the system you want to use.

2. Expand Databases.

3. Expand the database that you want to work with and Libraries.

4. Double-click the journal you want to use.

5. Click Receivers. This window displays all of the receivers that are associated with the journal.

6. To add a new receiver, click New.

7. Click OK to close the Journal Receivers window. Click OK again, and the new journal receiver changes its status to attached.

   For this option, you are allowed to change the attributes of the new receiver.
