Update Journal Settings Using ^JRNOPTS
As an alternative to using the Journal Settings page of the Management Portal, you can update the basic journal configuration settings using the ^JRNOPTS routine or by entering 7 at the Option prompt of the ^JOURNAL menu. To change the setting, type the new value at the prompt and press Enter. For example:
SYS>Do ^JRNOPTS
1) Primary Journal Directory: C:\MyIRIS\Mgr\Journal\
2) Alternate Journal Directory: D:\irissys\altjournal\
3) Journal File Size Limit (MB) 1024
4) Journal File Prefix:
5) Journal Purge Options: 2 days OR 2 backups, whichever comes first
6) Compress Journal files: Yes
Entering a question mark (?) displays Help. For example:
Journal File Prefix: ?
Enter an alphanumeric string ('_' allowed) or . to reset prefix to null
If you change any of the settings, then press Enter at a Change Property? prompt, you are given the option to activate the changes:
