After-image journal rows are maintained by default for data tables created in the new user.
A user can contain only one journal table.
The default is no journaling.
If only AFTER JOURNAL is specified, then a before change image is not maintained. If both types are specified, the two specifications must not conflict.
This setting can be overridden for a particular data table when the table is created (see CREATE TABLE and CREATE TABLE … AS).
Specifying the JOURNAL keyword without also specifying either NO or DUAL implies single copy journaling.
If journaling is specified, a DUAL journal is maintained for data tables with FALLBACK protection.
The JOURNAL keyword without AFTER implies both types (BEFORE and AFTER) of images.
- NO
- After-image journal rows are not maintained by default for data tables created in the new user.
- DUAL
- Dual after-image journal rows for non-fallback data tables are maintained.
- LOCAL
- Single after-image journal rows for non-fallback data tables are written on the same virtual AMP as the changed data rows.
- NOT LOCAL
- Single after-image journal rows for non-fallback data tables are written on another virtual AMP in the cluster.
