<h1 class="topictitle1">Journal access paths</h1>
|
|
<div><p>Journaling access paths can significantly reduce recovery time
|
|
by reducing the number of access paths that need to be rebuilt after an abnormal
|
|
system end. It is recommended that you journal access paths because larger
|
|
access paths require more time to rebuild.</p>
|
|
<p>When you journal database files, you record images of changes to the file
|
|
in the journal. The system uses these record images to recover the file after
|
|
an abnormal system end. </p>
|
|
<p>After an abnormal end, the system might find that access paths are not
|
|
synchronized with the data in the file. If an access path does not synchronize
|
|
with its data, the system rebuilds the access path to ensure that the two
|
|
are synchronized and usable.</p>
|
|
<p>When journaling access paths, the system records images of the access path
|
|
in the journal to provide known synchronization points between the access
|
|
path and its data. By having that information in the journal, the system recovers
|
|
both the data files and the access paths. The system then synchronizes the
|
|
two. In such cases, you avoid the lengthy time to rebuild access paths.</p>
|
|
<p>In addition, other system recovery functions work with journaling access
|
|
paths. For example, the system has a number of options to reduce recovery
|
|
time from the failure and replacement of a disk unit. These options include
|
|
user auxiliary storage pools and checksum protection. These options further
|
|
reduce the chances that the entire system must reload because of the disk
|
|
failure. However, you might still need to rebuild access paths when the system
|
|
is started following replacement of the failed disk. By using access path
|
|
journaling and some of the recovery options, you reduce your chances of having
|
|
to reload the entire system and having to rebuild access paths.</p>
|
|
<div class="p">Before journaling an access path, you must journal the physical files that
|
|
are associated with the access path. In addition, you must use the same journal
|
|
for the access path and its associated physical files. It is easy to start
|
|
journaling access paths:<ul><li>You can use the system-managed access-path protection (SMAPP) facility.</li>
|
|
<li>You can manage the journaling environment yourself with the Start Journal
|
|
Access Path (STRJRNAP) command. <ul><li>To start journaling the access path for the specified file, use the STRJRNAP
|
|
command. You can journal access paths that have a maintenance attribute of
|
|
immediate (*IMMED) or delayed (*DLY).</li>
|
|
<li>After you start journaling, the system protects the access path until
|
|
the access path is deleted or until you run the End Journal Access Path (ENDJRNAP)
|
|
command for that access path.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>Access path journaling minimizes additional output operations. For example,
|
|
the system will write the journal data for the changed record and the changed
|
|
access path in the same output operation. However, you should seriously consider
|
|
isolating your journal receivers in user auxiliary storage pools when you
|
|
start journaling your access paths. Placing journal receivers in their own
|
|
user auxiliary storage pool provides the best journaling performance, while
|
|
helping to protect them from a disk failure.</p>
