Journaling Maximum Lifetime

The Journaling Maximum Lifetime property specifies the maximum amount of time that a journaled message persists before it expires. The JMS IQ Manager journals messages only when journaling is enabled as described in Enable Journal. Journaling is disabled by default.

When a journaled message expires, it is not deleted from the journal database, but remains there until you back up the topics or queues. When you back up, all messages in the journal database are included in the archive (.zip) file, and the expired messages are removed from the journal database.

Default Value

The default is 604800 seconds (7 days).
