Use the DEFAULTJOURNAL command to set a default journal for multiple tables or files for the ADD TRANDATA command when used with a DB2 for i database, instead of having to use the JOURNAL keyword. Issue this command before issuing ADD TRANDATA. Any ADD TRANDATA command used without a journal assumes the journal from DEFAULTJOURNAL. To remove the use of a default journal, use the CLEAR option. To display the current setting of DEFAULTJOURNAL, you can issue the command without arguments.
