User-managed journal receivers

You can follow the steps described here to detach, save, or delete journal receivers manually.

If you choose to manage journal receivers manually, use the following procedure to detach, save and delete a journal receiver:

  1. Type CHGJRN JRN(QAUDJRN) JRNRCV(*GEN). This command:
    1. Detaches the currently attached receiver.
    2. Creates a new receiver with the next sequential number.
    3. Attaches the new receiver to the journal.

    For example, if the current receiver is AUDRCV0003, the system creates and attaches a new receiver called AUDRCV0004.

    The Work with Journal Attributes (WRKJRNA) command tells you which receiver is currently attached: WRKJRNA QAUDJRN.

  2. Use the Save Object (SAVOBJ) command to save the detached journal receiver. Specify object type *JRNRCV.
  3. Use the Delete Journal Receiver (DLTJRNRCV) command to delete the receiver. If you try to delete the receiver without saving it, you will receive a warning message.
