Are you afraid to journal because of the potential overhead it can add to your system? Fear no more!
System i customers can receive lots of benefits from journaling their DB2 tables and files. First, journaling improves the recoverability of your databases, whether you're trying to recover from a system failure or an uncompleted business transaction. Journaling is required for any application that needs the ability to undo database changes with a rollback operation or guarantee a business transaction with a commit operation. Second, journaling provides a log of all your database changes, which can be useful to a security auditor trying to determine who changed sensitive data, such as a salary column. This log of changes can also be used by programmers when they're trying to figure out what went wrong with one of their applications.
