Verifying journaling for IFS objects - assure_mimix - 10.0

Use this procedure to verify if an IFS object identified by an IFS tracking entry is journaled correctly. This procedure invokes the Verify Journaling IFS Entries (VFYJRNIFSE) command to determine whether the IFS object is journaled, whether it is journaled to the journal defined in the data group definition, and whether it is journaled with the attributes defined in the data group definition. The command can also be entered from a command line.

To verify journaling for IFS objects, do the following:

1. Access the journaled view of the Work with DG IFS Trk. Entries display as described in Displaying journaling status for IFS objects.

2. From the Work with DG IFS Trk. Entries display, type a 11 (Verify journaling) next to the IFS tracking entries you want. Then do one of the following:

   • To verify journaling using the command defaults, press Enter.

   • To modify the command defaults, press F4 (Prompt) and continue with the next step.

3. The Verify Journaling IFS Entries (VFYJRNIFSE) display appears. The Data group definition and IFS objects prompts identify the IFS object associated with the tracking entry you selected. You cannot change the values shown for the IFS objects prompts.

   Note: When the command is invoked from a command line, you can change values specified for the IFS objects prompts. Also, you can specify as many as 300 object selectors by using the + for more values prompt.

4. Specify the value you want for the Verify journaling on system prompt. Press F4 to see a list of valid values.

   When *DGDFN is specified, MIMIX considers whether the data group is configured for journaling on the target system (JRNTGT) and verifies journaling on the appropriate systems as required.

5. To use batch processing, specify *YES for the Submit to batch prompt and press Enter. Additional prompts for Job description and Job name appear. Either accept the default values or specify other values.

6. The System 1 file identifier and System 2 file identifier identify the file identifier (FID) of the IFS object on each system. You cannot change the values shown.

   Note: When the command is invoked from a command line, use F10 to see the FID prompts. Then you can optionally specify the unique FID for the IFS object on either system. The FID values can be used alone or in combination with the IFS object path name.

7. To verify journaling on the IFS objects specified, press Enter.
