<h1 class="topictitle1">Reasons to journal access paths</h1>
|
||
|
|
<div><p>If you journal access paths, the system can use the journal entries
|
||
|
|
to recover access paths instead of rebuilding them completely.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>When your server ends abnormally, perhaps because of a power interruption,
|
||
|
|
the next IPL can take much longer than a normal IPL. Rebuilding access paths
|
||
|
|
contributes to this long IPL time. When you perform an IPL after an abnormal
|
||
|
|
end, the system rebuilds access paths that were exposed, except those access
|
||
|
|
paths that are specified as MAINT(*REBLD) when you create the file. An access
|
||
|
|
path is exposed if changes have been made to it that have not been written
|
||
|
|
to the disk.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If you journal access paths, the system can use the journal entries to
|
||
|
|
recover access paths instead of rebuilding them completely. This reduces the
|
||
|
|
time it takes to IPL after the system ends abnormally. Access path journaling
|
||
|
|
is strictly for the purpose of server recovery during an IPL. You do not use
|
||
|
|
access path journal entries when you are applying journal changes to recover
|
||
|
|
a file.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If certain access paths and their underlying files are critical to your
|
||
|
|
operation, you want to ensure that these files are available as soon as possible
|
||
|
|
after the system ends abnormally. You can choose to journal these access paths.
|
||
|
|
This is called <span class="uicontrol">explicit access path journaling</span>.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Explicit access path journaling differs system-managed access-path protection
|
||
|
|
(SMAPP) in that with SMAPP you cannot control which access paths the system
|
||
|
|
chooses to protect. Therefore, if the system does not protect the access path
|
||
|
|
that you consider critical to meet your target recovery times, you must explicitly
|
||
|
|
journal that access path.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If you choose to journal an access path, remember the following:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>You can journal an access path for a physical file only if the physical
|
||
|
|
file has a keyed access path or an index created by a referential constraint.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Before you start journaling an access path, you must journal all the underlying
|
||
|
|
physical files to the same journal.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>You can journal only access paths that are defined as MAINT(*IMMED) or
|
||
|
|
MAINT(*DLY).</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Some access paths with international components for unicode
|
||
|
|
(ICU) sort sequence tables are too complex to be journaled. You
|
||
|
|
can journal access paths with other sort sequence tables, and many of the
|
||
|
|
access paths with ICU sort sequence tables.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>

|
||
|
|
about SMAPP.</p>
