o  To use the RMU Server After_Journal Start command for a
       database, you must have RMU$OPEN privilege in the root file
       access control list (ACL) for the database or the OpenVMS
       WORLD privilege.

    o  The ALS can be started only if the database is open and if
       after-image journaling is enabled.

    o  The RMU Server After_Journal Start command can be issued while
       users are attached to the database.

    o  If the ALS process stops abnormally, regardless of whether the
       current setting of the ALS is automatic or manual, the only
       way to restart it is to use the RMU Server After_Journal Start
       command.

    o  To determine whether the ALS is running, use the RMU Show
       Users command.

    o  Any errors encountered when you try to start the ALS are
       logged in the monitor log file. Use the RMU Show System
       command to find the location of the monitor log file.
