Relational database considerations for remote journal state
Once a remote journal is activated, the remote journal function will work with the communications configuration defined by the specified relational database (RDB) entry as long as the remote journal is active. However, the information will be taken from the RDB at the point in time when the remote journal was activated. Therefore, even if the definition of the RDB entry is changed while a remote journal has a journal state of *ACTIVE, none of those changes will take effect immediately.
If the remote journal is inactivated, and then activated again, the new RDB entry definition will take effect. When you view the remote journal information, the RDB entry information that is displayed represents the state of the RDB entry information when the remote journal was last activated.
