<h1 class="topictitle1">Estimate the size of the journal receiver manually</h1>
<div><p>Use this procedure to estimate the size of your journal receiver.</p>
<div class="section"><p>This procedure assumes the following:</p>
<ul><li>You are journaling after-images only.</li>
<li>You are using a single journal receiver for an entire day's transactions.</li>
<li>You are journaling database physical files only. It does not include estimates
for access path journaling, integrated file system objects, data areas, data
queues, or user-created entries.</li>
<li>You are not using the MINENTDTA parameter to minimize entry-specific data
for the files.</li>
<li>Most of the journal entries are record-level (changes to
records in a file) instead of object-level (like renaming or moving objects,
ALTER TABLE requests, creating and deleting objects, etc).</li>
</ul>
<p>Follow the steps below to estimate the size of a journal receiver:</p>
</div>
<ol><li class="stepexpand" id="rzakimanualestm__LIRECLN"><a name="rzakimanualestm__LIRECLN"><!-- --></a><span>Determine the average record length for all the files
that you plan to journal. If the record lengths vary significantly and the
information is available, use a weighted average based on the relative number
of transactions per file.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand" id="rzakimanualestm__fixlen"><a name="rzakimanualestm__fixlen"><!-- --></a><span>If you are not minimizing the fixed-length portion
of the journal entry (not specifying RCVSIZOPT(*MINFIXLEN) on the CRTJRN command),
you can specify the data that is included in the fixed-length portion (FIXLENDTA)
of the journal entries. Find the sum of the bytes for the options you are
using. Select the options from the following list:</span> <ul class="simple"><li>*JOB = 26 bytes</li>
<li>*USR = 10 bytes</li>
<li>*PGM = 10 bytes</li>
<li>*PGMLIB = 22 bytes</li>
<li>*SYSSEQ = 8 bytes</li>
<li>*RMTADR = 20 bytes</li>
<li>*THD = 8 bytes</li>
<li>*LUW = 27 bytes</li>
<li>*XID = 140 bytes</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="stepexpand" id="rzakimanualestm__number"><a name="rzakimanualestm__number"><!-- --></a><span>Estimate the number of transactions for a day.</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>The system-created portion of a journal entry is approximately
50 bytes. (It varies by the type of journal entry.)</span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Estimate the number bytes of auxiliary storage needed for one day's
transactions by using the following formula: </span> <pre>Total bytes needed = (a+b+50)*c</pre>
<p>where:</p>
<ul class="simple"><li>a = the average record length of files (step <a href="#rzakimanualestm__LIRECLN">1</a>)</li>
<li>b = sum of values selected for FIXLENDTA (step <a href="#rzakimanualestm__fixlen">2</a>)</li>
<li>c = number of transactions for a day (step <a href="#rzakimanualestm__number">3</a>)</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<div class="section"><p>For example:</p>
<ol><li>The average record length for journaled files is 115 bytes.</li>
<li>*JOB, *USR, and *PGM options of FIXLENDTA are selected. Their sum is 46
bytes.</li>
<li>The number of journaled transactions per day is 10 000.</li>
<li>The total bytes needed to journal after-images for a day is: <pre>(115+46+50) * 10 000 = 2 110 000</pre>
</li>
</ol>
