You must make the following changes to the i5 server where the remote journal exists:
-
You must install Connect CDC on the system where the remote journal exists.
-
For the Connect CDC Change Selector (CS) to process from a remote journal, the file/table definitions need to exist in the same library format as they do on the i5 system of the original source data. These table definitions are not required to be journalled and would be just empty files. The reason for this is that the CS will read the system catalog to get the table definition information to use when capturing the related data from the remote journal.
Note: Multiple System i5 Change Selectors can be used to process the same journal.
