Journaling the files without an ASP | IBM SG24-6526-00 guide

2.To start the console for the specified machine in the default environment, enter the command:

adminclient <iSeries> <Port Number>

This may be quite slow. If an instance other than the default instance is required, enter the port number. Otherwise, you may leave this blank.

3.Wait for the message “Console Ready” to appear in the console. The topology view appears by default.

4.Open the node, application server, and container to display the beans. Click the Application Server. Click Start and wait. The beans turn blue as they start. This may take several minutes.

3.2.3Journaling

Because WebSphere applications run under commitment control, files used by call.connect must be journaled. There are many options to provide different levels of security.

Since files from different libraries must be journaled, the journal receiver and the journal must be created in a new library rather than an existing System21 library. The following files must be journaled to operate call.connect:

All physical files in library OSLOMF3

The following files in library OSLD1F3:

–INP40

–INP60

–OEP05

–OEP40

–OEP41

–OEP45

–OEP45E

–OEP55

–OEP56

However, merely journaling these files does not give the user the full advantages of journaling such as extra security.

Performance improves if files are journaled to an auxiliary storage pool (ASP). You can use the commands in the following sections with or without an ASP.

Journaling the files without an ASP

To journal these files without an ASP, complete the following steps. These are sample commands only and may be varied as required.

1.Sign on as QSECOFR.

2.Create a new library for the journal receiver and journal, for example, OSLF3:

CRTLIB LIB(OSLF3) TEXT('OSL journal library')

3.Create a journal receiver:

CRTJRNRCV JRNRCV(OSLF3/OSL0001) THRESHOLD(50000) TEXT('System21 journal receiver.')

4.Create a journal:

CRTJRN JRN(OSLF3/OSL) JRNRCV(OSLF3/OSL0001) MNGRCV(*SYSTEM) DLTRCV(*YES) TEXT('System21 journal')
