Restoring journals and journal receivers
Typically, you can restore journals or journal receivers only to the same library from which they were saved. The one exception is journal receivers that are part of a remote journal network. These receivers can often be restored to the remote receiver library as well.
Use the Restore Object (RSTOBJ) and Restore Library (RSTLIB) commands to restore journals and journal receivers. When you are restoring multiple objects with one of these commands, journals and journaled objects are restored before the journal receivers.
When you use several commands to restore several objects, restore the objects in the following order:
- Journals
- Based-on physical files
- Other journaled objects associated with those journals
- Dependent logical files
- Journal receivers
Journal receivers can be restored at any time after the journals. They do not have to be restored after the journaled objects.
