*ALLCHGRCV can be specified as a control group entry to save journal receivers that have not been saved since they were last changed. This entry will include journal receivers that are attached to a journal and journal receivers that are not attached to a journal.
...
It may be useful to limit the journal receivers to a specific set of journals. To do this, object list QCHGJRNRCV can be created for *ALLCHGRCV backups and object list QDTCJRNRCV can be created for *ALLDTCRCV backups. Only journal receivers associated with journals that are specified in the respective object lists will be processed. Using QCHGJRNRCV or QDTCJRNRCV differs from the default behavior in an important way: If the object list contains a journal in a library that starts with a 'Q', the journal receivers for that journal will be processed.
In releases IBM i 7.2 and later, exclude Exclude entries can be specified in object list QCHGJRNRCV or QDTCJRNRCV to exclude journals from *ALLCHGRCV and *ALLDTCRCV backups.
...
- Objects, that are journaled to the journal associated with these journal receivers, must be saved with retain object detail *YES, *OBJ or *MBR. If the object detail for the objects is not retained, *ALLDTCRCV will save all of the detached journal receivers every time it is run after BRMS maintenance has run instead of saving only the recently detached receivers. In releases IBM i 7.2 and earlier, to process journals in libraries that start with 'Q' when specified in object list QCHGJRNRCV or QDTCJRNRCV, the following PTFs or superseding PTFs are required:
7.2 SI53306
7.1 SI53305
6.1 SI53304 - In release IBM i 7.2, to allow excluded journals in object list QCHGJRNRCV or QDTCJRNRCV, the following PTFs or superseding PTFs are required:
7.2 SI53306 - QAUDJRN journal receivers in QSYS are saved at sequence 34 when a *SAVSYS is done. To restore these audit journal receivers, a RSTOBJ or WRKMEDIBRM Option 7, 7 and specify the name(s) of the receivers you want to restore. More details are available here. To list the journal receivers saved, use the following command
DSPTAP SEQNBR(34 34) DATA(*SAVRST) OUTPUT(*PRINT)
- When doing incremental saves and the receivers are in a library in an independent auxiliary storage pool (IASP), the IASP must be in the name space. The IASP can be added to the name space by adding a *SETASPGRP entry to a control group prior to the *ALLCHGRCV or *ALLDTCRCV entry.
