VMS Help  —  RMU72  Dump  Backup File, Command Qualifiers, Journal
    Journal=file-name

    Allows you improve tape performance by the dump backup file
    operation by specifying the journal file created by the RMU
    Backup command with the Journal qualifier.

    The RMU Backup command with the Journal qualifier creates the
    journal file and writes to it a description of the backup
    operation, including identification of the tape volumes, their
    contents, and the tape drive name.

    The RMU Dump Backup File with the Journal qualifier directs
    the RMU Dump Backup_File command to read the journal file
    and identify the tape volumes when the Label qualifier is not
    specified.

    The journal file must be the one created at the time the backup
    operation was performed. If the wrong journal file is supplied,
    an informational message is generated, and the specified journal
    file is not used to identify the volumes to be processed.
