RE: QAUDJRN Question -- MIDRANGE-L

Dave,

QSYS/QAUDJRN is a special purpose system object that, when it exists,
acts as the OS Security Auditing Journal.  Many OS Security related
events are only written to QAUDJRN.  I suspect you can create a Journal
called QAUDJRN in your own library, however, the operating system will
not recognize it as the system security audit journal and will not write
OS security entries to it.

Another possible route is to see if your messaging product can be taught
to write its journal entries to another journal name (we do this all the
time in our NetworkSecurity product), so that it does not clutter up the
QSYS/QAUDJRN.  The product may have the ability to write to a named
journal already, or it may be a trivial change for the vendor to enable
this.  Your best bet might be to talk to the makers of your messaging
software and see if they can help you out.
