<h1 class="topictitle1">Plan for journal management</h1>
<div><p>This topic provides you with the information you need to ensure
you have enough disk space, to plan what objects to journal, and to plan which
journaling options to use.</p>
<p>Before you start to journal an object, you must make decisions that will
determine how you will create journals and receivers, what objects to journal
and how to journal those objects. These decisions include:</p>
<ul><li>Whether to use iSeries™ Navigator to set up your journaling environment.</li>
<li>What objects to protect with journaling.</li>
<li>Whether to journal other objects that the system does not journal.</li>
<li>Whether to combine journaling with the save-while-active function.</li>
<li>How many journals you need and which objects must be assigned to each
journal.</li>
<li>Whether to journal after-images only or both before-images and after-images.</li>
<li>Whether your application programs must write journal entries to assist
with recovery.</li>
<li>What type of disk pool in which to store your journal receiver.</li>
<li>Whether to use the remote journal function to replicate the journal entries
and receivers to one or more additional systems.</li>
<li>Whether to omit the optional open, close, or force entries for your objects.</li>
</ul>
<p>You also need to make operational decisions about journal management:</p>
<ul><li>How often must journal receivers be changed and saved?</li>
<li>How often must you save journaled objects?</li>
<li>How must journals and journal receivers be secured?</li>
</ul>
<p>Finally, you need to balance the benefits of journaling with the affect
it may have on your system performance and auxiliary storage requirements.</p>
<p>Use the following information to help you make these decisions:</p>

<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzakiguivsgs.htm">iSeries Navigator versus the character-based interface for journaling objects</a></strong><br />
There are two environments that you can use for journal management: iSeries Navigator
and the character-based interface. iSeries Navigator provides a graphical
interface for journaling that is easy to use and does not require the use
of control language (CL) commands. The character-based interface requires
the use of CL commands or APIs, but has more functionality than iSeries Navigator.</li>

When you plan which objects to journal, consider the following:</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzakiplnuseaux.htm">Plan for journal use of auxiliary storage</a></strong><br />
If you are journaling an object, journal management writes a copy of every object change to the journal receiver. It writes additional entries for object level activity, such as opening and closing the object, adding a member, or changing an object attribute. If you have a busy system and journal many objects, your journal receivers can quickly become very large.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzakiplnrcv.htm">Plan setup for journal receivers</a></strong><br />
The following topics provide information to plan configuration for journal receivers. They provide information about each option that you can select for journal receivers.</li>
