The Remove Remote Journal (RMVRMTJRN) command disassociates a remote journal on the specified target system from the specified journal on the source system. The journal on the source system may be either a local journal or another remote journal.

The remote journal, and any associated journal receivers, are not deleted from the target system by the command processing. No processing is performed on the target system for the command. The remote journal that remains on the target system may later be added back to the remote journal definition for the journal on the source system by using the Add Remote Journal (ADDRMTJRN) command or the Add Remote Journal (QjoAddRemoteJournal) API.

It is the responsibility of the user to delete the remote journal and any associated journal receivers from the target system, if so desired.

Once a remote journal association has been removed from a journal, all of the journal receivers that are currently in the journal's receiver directory on the source system will no longer be protected from deletion even if the journal entries have not yet been replicated to the remote journal.

Restrictions:

• The command must be called from the source system for a local or remote journal.
• The remote journal on the specified target system cannot have a journal state of *ACTIVE.
• The specified relational database (RDB) directory entry must meet the following rules:
  • The communications protocol must be one of the remote journal function supported protocols.
  • The remote location name in the RDB cannot refer to the *LOCAL database.
  • The RDB cannot use an application requester driver program (*ARDPGM) to locate the target system.
