<h1 class="topictitle1">Considerations for multiple hard links and journaling</h1>
<div><p>If you have multiple hard links to a journaled integrated file
system object, all the links should be saved and restored together so that
the linkage is preserved as well as the associated journal information.</p>
<p>If specifying names in some of the journal related commands and if the
names are really multiple hard links, then the object will only be operated
on 'once'. The other hard links are essentially ignored.</p>
<p>Because multiple hard links point to
the same object, and the journal entry has only the file identifier (File
ID), which is the same for the object, then any journal interfaces that show
the path name, for example, Display Journal (DSPJRN), show only one link name
for the object. However, this should not cause problems because one can operate
on an object by any name and get the same result.</p>
