Re: List remote journals and the status

[Jim Oberholtzer <midrangel@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Jack,

That does provide the information needed, however I was hoping to have a 
program that could loop through all the remote journals on the system 
without having to process a bunch of spool files.  The API gets me 
there, I just need to construct the call in CL to it.  Since most of my 
clients are still at V5R4 and are only now starting to move to V7 I'll 
have to be doing it at V5R4.
