I'm looking at the files being journaled, in one particular journal, on a customer box. And I'm seeing some things that have me scratching my head.

This particular journal is tied to 7222 members in 2092 files. And a good many of these files are logicals of physical files that are themselves journaled.

What is the point of journaling logicals, when the based-on physical is itself journaled? Wouldn't that result in an awful lot of redundant entries?
