Re: Copyng a library

[Sam_L <lennon_s_j@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had a similar problem, discussed in a thread "RSTLIB restarts 
Journaling. Why?" back in Nov 2011.  I'm no longer in that job, but I 
think a QDFTJRN was the answer, though I'm not sure I managed to 
actually stop the journaling. Here's a link to one entry in the thread:

You might want to browse through the entire thread.

I'm guessing that the journaling is causing the CLRLIB to take an exceptionally long time, and no journaling is required on the backup copy, so can anyone advise how I can use RSTLIB but prevent the journaling from starting on any of the objects restored?
