Journaling a Physical File on IBM iSeries Using STRJRNPF

We have a system that needs to interface directly with some EnterpriseOne Files.  This system is written in Java and seems to be very difficult to change any JDBC settings to not use commitment control.

Anyway, to get around this issue, we started journaling the physical file that the JDBC command was trying to update using the following command:

STRJRNPF FILE(PRODDTA/F0911) JRN(OWJRNL/OW_JRNL)

Egen Process JDBJ Gotcha

When setting up a workstation to perform the eGen process, once in a while there is a step that I seem to forget.  It has to do with two settings in the JDBJ.INI file that need to be changed from their default values and JDBJ driver files:

• [JDBj-SPEC DATA SOURCE] – This whole stanza needs to be commented out.  If you don’t, the eGen application will here for the location to which you want to generate your serialized objects, which is defaulted to the local MSDE database.
• [JDBj-JDBC DRIVERS] – The values in this stanza are commented out by default.  You will need to uncomment the drivers that are appropriate to your installation.  For me, that is:
• AS400=com.ibm.as400.access.AS400JDBCDriver
• SQLSERVER=com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
• JDBJ Driver Files – The four files below need to be copied to the C:\e811\MISC directory. 
• jt400.jar
• msbase.jar
• mssqlserver.jar
• msutil.jar
