VerifyJournal

Boolean

false

Purpose

The VerifyJournal parameter enables you to specify that your active (or online) journal file is verified when the journal becomes full and is transferred offline. This operation verifies the physical integrity of your transaction journal file after it has been transferred, performing a series of tests that verify the contents of records, including various cross‑checks between adjacent records.

If an error is detected during the verification process and the SuppressDialogs parameter is set to false (the default), a message is displayed advising you of this. Any error that is detected is output to your journal‑file‑name.scan file (for example, db0000000009.scan), regardless of the setting of the SuppressDialogs parameter.

A progress report while the operation is running and notification of completion at the end of the operation are output to your jommsgn.log file.

Parameter is read when …

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