Provides information about recovery-unit journaling where
applicable. You can use the /RU_JOURNAL qualifier on any file,
but it is inoperative on files not marked for recovery-unit
journaling.
This qualifier provides the only way of accessing a file that
would otherwise be inaccessible because of unresolved recovery
units. This situation might be the result of an unavailable
recovery-unit journal file or of unavailable data files that
were included in the recovery unit.
To use the /RU_JOURNAL qualifier, your process must have both
CMEXEC privilege and access to the [SYSJNL] directory (either
SYSPRV privilege or access for UIC [1,4]).
This qualifier is compatible with all of the ANALYZE/RMS_FILE
qualifiers, and you can use it with wildcards and multiple file
specifications.
When you specify the /RU_JOURNAL qualifier, the Analyze/RMS_File
utility provides you with the following data for each active
recovery unit:
o The journal file specification and the journal creation date
o The recovery-unit identification, recovery-unit start time,
cluster system identification number (CSID), and process
identification (PID)
o Information about the files involved in the recovery unit,
including the file specification, the name of the volume where
the file resides, the file identification, the date and time
the file was created, and the current status of the file
o The state of the recovery unit - active, none, started,
committed, or not available (for more information, see the
RMS Journaling for OpenVMS Manual)
o An error statement
