I have a client who has an Aud Jrn receiver fast approaching 9,999,999,999.
Will the sequence number for Jrn Rcvr's roll back to 1 once it gets to
9,999,999,999?  

 

The client says that IBM told them that the system may crash (I hope it
wouldn't) once the receivers try to roll back to 1.  I have recommended that
the client create new Jrn Rcvr's with a entry threshold of 1000000000, and
associate the new receivers to their audit journals...restarting the count
from 1.

 

Anyone know what happens at 9,999,999,999?
