2.6 Journal Issues

With RTR Version 3 software, the format and content of the transaction journal have changed. In general, if you upgrade or migrate to RTR Version 3 but continue to use the RTR Version 2 API and DECnet, you can use your existing application without change, However, if an RTR Version 2 application stored and used a transaction ID, the changed transaction ID format of RTR Version 3 can cause problems to that application. To correct such a problem, change the application.

A journal file resides on each RTR back-end system. This is not a change from RTR Version 2. Before you shut down RTR Version 2 to bring up RTR Version 3, you must deal with your journal file, using the following procedure:

1.In the Version 2 environment, stop all clients so that no new transactions can be initiated.

2.Monitor the Version 2 journal file to check the status of all current transactions.

3.When all transactions are complete and the journal file is empty, you can delete the journal file at this point, and shut down the entire Version 2 environment as follows:

a.Shut down RTR applications.

b.Shut down RTR Version 2.

c.Install RTR Version 3.

d.Bring up RTR Version 3 including performing the following tasks:

iStart RTR Version 3.

iiCreate the new journal file.

iiiCreate the new operating environment, for example, define facilities.

ivStart the application.
