The -JOURNAL and -REPLICATION qualifiers are the only SET qualifiers relevant for journaling. For information on the other MUPIP SET qualifiers, refer to the "MUPIP" chapter.

-[NO]J[OURNAL][=journal-option-list]

Enables or disables journaling for the specified database file or region(s). When enabling the journaling capability, it also establishes characteristics for the journal file.

-NOJOURNAL specifies that the database does not allow journaling, or disables journaling for a database that currently has it enabled. It is equivalent to -JOURNAL=DISABLE. -NOJOURNAL does not accept an argument assignment. It does not create new journal files. When a database has been SET -NOJOURNAL, it appears to have no journaling file name or other characteristics.

-JOURNAL= enables journaling for a database file. -JOURNAL= takes one or more arguments in a journal-option-list. As long as journaling is ENABLED and turned ON at the end of the command, SET -JOURNAL= always creates a new version of the specified journal file(s). The journal-option-list contains keywords separated with commas (,) enclosed in double quotes "". When the list contains only one keyword, the double quotes "" are optional.

For details on the journal options refer to the SET JOURNAL Options section.

-REPLICATION=<replication-option>

-REPLICATION sets journal characteristics and changes the replication state simultaneously. It can also be used with the -JOURNAL qualifier. As long as journaling is ENABLED and turned ON at the end of the command SET -REPLICATION always creates a new version of the specified journal file(s).
