That's what i'm talking about and a much more exact way of describing it. ;) It sounds like you'll be doing it in an LPAR, so the target LPAR would have to be big enough to contain a copy of all the Mimix'ed files, some much smaller amount of 'in flight' data in receivers, and whatever growth you forecast in the source/target database sizes over a certain time period. rob@xxxxxxxxx Sent by: midrange-l-bounce To s@xxxxxxxxxxxx Midrange Systems Technical Discussion <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx> 10/26/2006 04:11 cc PM Subject RE: Going from little to no Please respond to journalling to MIMIX Midrange Systems Technical Discussion <midrange-l@midra nge.com> By "additional copies" do you simply mean LIBRARYa/FILEb on System1 now also being duplicated in LIBRARYa/FILEb on System2, or, is there some other concept I need to be aware of?

From what i've seen of the Mimix journaling activity on our system the
size of the receivers doesn't get too bad. Because they are sent off to the backup box so frequently, they don't really build up all that much. There is probably a good bit of choice in how this can be configured (we are an OLD Mimix shop and really are running an older version of the app, and over SNA at that...). I would think the latest greatest versions are even more efficient in terms of DASD impact. It seems like the bulk of the DASD used would be for the additional copies of the DB files that are kept up to date by the Mimix journal activity (which should be pretty easy to define, at least initally - then they should grow at a similar rate to your 'main' DB files that are being mirrored). The receivers themselves should be more ephemeral 'in flight' type objects that run at (more or less) a steady size, but don't really accumulate.

See http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/tips0626.html and http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/tips0607.html . That said, how about only keeping the minimum amount of receivers on the production machine? Cut your receivers frequently and once you know MIMIX has shipped the contents to the remote box just delete them. Back 'em up first if desired or if your audit policy dictates. We journal the bulk of the main JDE database. Without the minimizing techniques above our receiver goes anywhere from 700MB-2.5GB a day with around 300 concurrent users. Basically it's small enough that I don't even think about it. YMMV of course. If you're concerned about performance and can stand a risk of losing the most recent transactions in a catastrophic failure, check this tip about journal caching: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/tips0627.html John A.

Our current system has little to no journalling and receivers. So I basically had to WAG a growth estimate for that of 30%. Anyone have some before/after RTVDSKINF/PRTDSKINF combos? I would think that it might change based on age afterwards, receiver retention policy and a host of other things I think I'll learn very quickly about. Here's some projections.
