Activate a remote journal using iSeries Navigator

After you add a remote journal, you must activate it.

To activate a remote journal, follow these steps:

  1. From iSeries™ Navigator, expand the system you want to use.
  2. Expand Databases.
  3. Expand the database you want to work with and Libraries.
  4. Click the library that contains the journal that has the associated remote journal you want to activate.
  5. Right-click the journal, and select Properties.
  6. On the Journal Properties window, click Remote Journals.
  7. On the Remote Journals for window, select the remote journal in the list of remote journals, then click Activate to activate the selected remote journal.
  8. On the Activate window, select the delivery mode, the starting receiver, and the processing mode for the activate request.
  9. Click OK.
Notes:
  1. Activating a remote journal for the first time creates one or more journal receivers on the target system.
  2. Activating the remote journal establishes the connection between the source and remote journal so that journal entry replication can begin.
  3. The remote journal must be inactive before you can activate it. Also, the remote journal that you are activating must not itself already be replicating journal entries to other remote journals.
