Re: Journals across machines


Works well - but this can miss critical objects such as data areas which
are not capured by journalled changes, and files which aren't journalled,
but are vital. Best get a few business users to go through the motions on
the B machine to see if anything bombs out in normal use.

Again, I've seen Lakeview's MIMIX/400 product manages this process very
well.

Another consideration might be to protect any links between machines by
changing authorities to stop developers from also sending objects from the
A machine to the B machine - this risks them bypassing any change control
steps - e.g. they could send objects from test libs on A  to live libs on
B. (I was very careful not to call them AS/400 & BS/400.) Anyway, if you
are restoring, not transmitting, this won't apply.
