Re: Journal Question

Jeff,

I use the MINENTDTA option on our journals without any problems with our 
HA solution (not DataMirror).   However, this will only help noticeably if 
your applications perform numerous updates.  Using the MINENTDTA option 
reduced the bandwidth needed for sending transactions to our target 
systems over the WAN.  I would check with DataMirror before making any 
changes just to be safe.

Has anyone used the MINENTDTA option on their journals?  We are wondering
if it creates any problems (especially with applications that read
journals, like DataMirror) and if the space savings are worth any problems
it might cause.  Thanks!
