Release-to-release considerations for remote journals

Release-to-release considerations for remote journals are discussed in this topic.

The release-to-release considerations for remote journals are:

• Information APAR II12556 contains a list of program temporary fixes (PTF) to apply for V5R1 support of remote journaling.
• If you specify RCVSIZOPT(*MAXOPT2) on the journal that you attach a journal receiver to, you cannot replicate the journal receivers to any remote journals on any systems at a release prior to V5R1M0.
• If you specify minimized-entry specific data (MINENTDTA) for either *FILE or *DTAARA on the journal to which you attached a journal receiver, you cannot replicate the journal receivers to any remote journals on any systems at a release before V5R1M0.
• If you specify minimized-entry specific data (MINENTDTA) for *FLDBDY on the journal to which you attached a journal receiver, you cannot replicate the journal receivers to any remote journals on any systems at a release before V5R4M0.
• If you specify RCVSIZOPT(*MAXOPT3) on the journal that you attach a journal receiver to, you cannot replicate the journal receivers to any remote journals on any systems at a release prior to V5R3M0.
• If JRNOBJLMT(*MAX10M) is specified for a local journal, the remote journal must exist on a system at a release of V5R4M0 or later.
• If remote journal filtering is used when activating the remote journal connection then the target system must be at release i 7.1 or later.
