Adding a Remote Journal

Adding a remote journal creates a remote journal on a target system or independent disk pool and associates that remote journal with the journal on the source system. This occurs if this is the first time the remote journal is being established for a journal. The journal on the source system can be either a local or remote journal.

If a remote journal environment has previously been established, adding a remote journal reassociates the remote journal on the target system with the journal on the source system.

You can establish and associate a remote journal on a target system with a journal on the source system by one of the following methods:

  • System i Navigator.

  • Add the Remote Journal (QjoAddRemoteJournal) API on the source system.

  • Add the Remote Journal (ADDRMTJRN) command on the source system.
