JournalRootDirectory

String (disk path)

database-directory\journals

Purpose

The JournalRootDirectory parameter specifies the root directory for your recovery journal files. The directory name can be a relative or an absolute path. The value of <default> corresponds to a relative directory name of journals.

Hint

If you specify a relative directory name, the directory is assumed to be relative to the JADE database directory. For example, if your database directory is Jade\system and you specify JournalRootDirectory=journals, the full directory path is Jade\system\journals.

Parameter is read when …

The database server node is initialized; for example, when you restart the database server.
