Question

How do you view journal data from a specified table? I want to see what happended to a table in a specified time frame.

I got info on the table by using the following command: DSPFD FILE(P6PRDBDB00/P6OIDPF)

Got the journaled name and library but I dont know how to view it for the object P6OIDPF?

I did go to library #MXJRN and whent to P6 and got the following :

How can I view the object P6OIDPF data? Or a command to view it? Theres a lot of objects in P6.

Answer 1

The command to use is DSPJRN JRN(#MXJRN/P6) FILE((P6PRDBDB00/P6OIDPF))

You can Filter on start and end date time.

Answer 3

Follow the next sequence:

Get the data file length and use it in the next command

DSPJRN JRN(JRNLIB/JRN)            
   FILE((FILELIB/DATAFILE *FIRST))
   OUTPUT(*OUTFILE)           
   OUTFILFMT(*TYPE2)          
   OUTFILE(OUTFILELIB/OUTFILE)
   ENTDTALEN(datafilelength)   

Once you get the data with wrkqry create a joined table where you get all the outfile fields except the last one JOESD. Instead of JOESD, you get all the data fields.

                        Specify File Selections                  

Type choices, press Enter.  Press F9 to specify an additional       
 file selection.                                                   

File . . . . . . . . .   OUTFILE        Name, F4 for list

File ID  . . . . . . .   B              A-Z99, *ID                

the join is not important

                       Specify How to Join Files                            

Type comparisons to show how file selections are related, press Enter.         
Tests:  EQ, NE, LE, GE, LT, GT                                               

Field             Test     Field                                               
A.JOENTL          EQ       ANYFIELD                                            

Select all the fields but JOESD.

                      Select and Sequence Fields                           

Type sequence number (0-9999) for the names of up to 500 fields to            
appear in the report, press Enter.

1     A.JOFLAG          Flag: 1 or 0                                    1

1     A.JOMINESD        Minimized ESD: 0, 1, or 2                       1     
1     A.JORES           Not used                                       18     
      A.JOESD           Entry Specific Data - Variable contents       808     
1     B.FIELD1          FIELD1                                          2     
1     B.FIELD2          FIELD2                                          3    0

Then just copy from the outfile to the jrn file with replace and *nochk

CPYF FROMFILE(QTEMP/OUTFILE)  
   TOFILE(QTEMP/JRN)        
   MBROPT(*REPLACE)         
   FMTOPT(*NOCHK)           

And that's it! In JRN you have all the journal data and the data file data formatted as in the original file.

Answer 4

You have system procedure DISPLAY_JOURNAL and DISPLAY_JOURNAL_ENTRY_INFO in last versions of DB2
