Saving changed objects when you use journaling
Journal Management describes how to set up journaling. When you use journaling, the system uses one or more journal receivers to keep a record of changes that occur to the journaled objects.
If you are journaling data areas, data queues, or database files, you probably do not want to save those journaled objects when you save changed objects. You should save the journal receivers rather than the journaled objects.
The journaled objects (OBJJRN) parameter of the SAVCHGOBJ command controls whether the system saves journaled objects or not. If you specify *NO, which is the default, the system does not save an object if both of these conditions are true:
- The system journaled the object at the time specified for the REFDATE and REFTIME parameters on the SAVCHGOBJ command.
- The object is currently being journaled.
The OBJJRN parameter applies only to journaled data areas, data queues, and database files. It does not apply to journaled Integrated File System Integrated File System objects.
