Use the apply and remove journaled changes output file

Use the apply and remove journaled changes output (QAJRNCHG) file to make a record of all the activity that occurs when you perform an apply or remove journaled changes operation.

When you specify to create the output file, the system uses the QAJRNCHG output file in the QSYS library with the format name QJOAPYRM as a model.

The words in parenthesis in the Field column indicate the column heading used in the output file.

See the following commands for the all of the parameters used with this output file:

The following table describes the fields that the output file creates.
