AS400 Mid Range - Restoration

Expert: Pete Mayhew - 10/30/2009

Question
I have restored objects(Journal Receivers) from a expired tape (in WRKMEDBRM it is shown as expired). After restoration, I can see the size of the data but no data in it.
How should I proceed with this?

Answer
The expired status in BRMS should not affect the data on the tape, it only means the tape can be overwritten. Journals and journal receivers can be tricky. I'm assuming that you restored the journal receivers in order to recover some lost data? Can you give me a little more information about the circumstances? I also don't believe that you can look at the data in a journal receiver the same way as you can in a physical file.
