HELPLIB.HLB  —  RMU72  Restore  Only Root, Command Qualifiers, After Journal
    After_Journal=file-spec
    Noafter_Journal

                                   NOTE

       This qualifier is maintained for compatibility with versions
       of Oracle Rdb prior to Version 6.0. You might find it more
       useful to specify the Aij_Options qualifier, unless you are
       only interested in creating extensible .aij files.

    Specifies how RMU Restore Only_Root is to handle after-image
    journaling and .aij file creation, using the following rules:

    o  If you specify the After_Journal qualifier and provide a file
       specification, RMU Restore Only_Root creates a new extensible
       .aij file and enables journaling.

    o  If you specify the After_Journal qualifier but you do not
       provide a file specification, RMU Restore Only_Root creates
       a new extensible .aij file with the same name as the journal
       that was active at the time of the backup operation.

    o  If you specify the Noafter_Journal qualifier, RMU Restore
       Only_Root disables after-image journaling and does not create
       a new .aij file. Note that if you specify the Noafter_Journal
       qualifier, there will be a gap in the sequence of .aij files.
       For example, suppose your database has .aij file sequence
       number 1 when you back it up. If you issue an RMU Restore
       Only_Root command with the Noafter qualifier, the .aij file
       sequence number will be changed to 2. This means that you
       cannot (and do not want to) apply the original .aij file to
       the restored database (doing so would result in a sequence
       mismatch).

    o  If you do not specify an After_Journal, Noafter_Journal, Aij_
       Options, or Noaij_Options qualifier, RMU Restore Only_Root
       recovers the journal state (enabled or disabled) and tries to
       reuse the .aij file or files.

       If you choose this option, take great care to either set the
       database root TSN and CSN correctly, or create a full and
       complete backup file of the database. Failure to do so might
       make it impossible for you to recover your database from the
       .aij file should it become necessary.

       However, if the .aij file or files are not available (for
       example, they have been backed up), after-image journaling is
       disabled.

    You cannot use the After_Journal qualifier to create fixed-size
    .aij files; use the Aij_Options qualifier.
