|

|
|
<div><div class="section"><p>Use Journal receiver calculator. The Journal receiver calculator
|
||
|
|
provides an easy way for you to estimate the size of your journal receiver
|
||
|
|
without setting up journaling.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The calculator 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 minimizing entry-specific data for the files.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>

<div class="nested1" xml:lang="en-us" id="method2test"><a name="method2test"><!-- --></a><h2 class="topictitle2">Method 2 - Running a test</h2>
|
||
|
|
<div><div class="section"><p>Another method for estimating the size of the journal receiver
|
||
|
|
is to run a test. This method is more accurate because it includes all journal
|
||
|
|
entries. Additionally, this method will work for any object type which can
|
||
|
|
be journaled, not just database physical files unlike method one. To use this
|
||
|
|
method, you must either have journaling set up already or you must set it
|
||
|
|
up.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If you are already using journaling, skip steps <a href="#method2test__rcvstep1">1</a> and <a href="#method2test__rcvstep2">2</a> below.
|
||
|
|
Instead, issue a Display Journal Receiver Attributes (DSPJRNRCVA) command
|
||
|
|
before the time period so you can compare sizes from the beginning of the
|
||
|
|
period to the end.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>This method assumes that the same receiver is used
|
||
|
|
during the whole test. If there is a change journal to attach a new journal
|
||
|
|
receiver during the test, you must include the sizes of all the receivers.</p>
