HELPLIB.HLB  —  RMU72  Restore  Command Qualifiers, Journal
    Journal=file-name

    Allows you to specify a journal file to be used to improve tape
    performance by a restore operation (including a by-area or just-
    corrupt restore operation).

    The backup operation creates the journal file and writes to it
    a description of the backup operation. This description contains
    identification of the tape drives, the tape volumes and their
    contents. The Journal qualifier directs RMU Restore to read the
    journal file and select only the useful tape volumes.

    The journal file must be the one created at the time the backup
    operation was performed. If the wrong journal file is supplied,
    RMU Restore returns an informational message and does not use the
    specified journal file to select the volumes to be processed.

    If you omit the Label qualifier, the restore operation creates a
    list of volume labels from the contents of the journal file.

    A by-area restore operation also constructs a list of useful
    tape volume labels from the journal file; only those volumes are
    mounted and processed.
