====== Disabling Journal And Volume History Entries ======

When Volumes are added, moved or altered, by default TapeTrack adds entries to the Journal and History databases.

If you wish to change this behavior you can pass arguments to the TapeTrack Server to completely disable this logging, or selectively disable this logging for specific Customers.

\\

<note warning>
We strongly recommend against ever using this feature unless you:
  * do not use the Journal facilities and want to save overhead and disk space, or
  * have a very specific need to perform operations without Volume History being created. 
 **We strongly recommend that you never do this.**

----

**When this feature is used a record will be written to the Journal to record that it has been used.**</note>
===== Disabling Journal Entries =====

[[server:start_stop|Stop the Framework Server]].

<note warning>[[technote:registry_edit|Backup Registry]] before making any alterations.  Do not edit the registry unless you are competent to do so.</note>

Disabling the journal entries is achieved by adding an attribute to the registry entry for the Framework Sever.  Once you have a current backup of the registry, navigate to ''Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\TMSS10SVC'' in Registry Editor.

Double click on the ''Image Path'' to open up the ''Edit String'' window.

At the end of the Value data string, add the string required to disable the journal entries for the required Customer-ID's based on the following examples and click OK to commit the changes.

Disable journal entries for all Customers:
<code>
"C:\Program Files\TapeTrack\TapeTrack Framework Server\TMSS10Server.exe" -J #DiSaBlE
</code>

If you have replication disabled on your server, the registry entry will have a ''-X'' option, if this is the case simply add the ''-J'' option after that.

<code>
"C:\Program Files\TapeTrack\TapeTrack Framework Server\TMSS10Server.exe" -X -J #DiSaBlE
</code>

Disable journal entries for all Customer US01:
<code>
"C:\Program Files\TapeTrack\TapeTrack Framework Server\TMSS10Server.exe" -J US01
</code>

Disable journal entries for all Customers US01 and US03:
<code>
"C:\Program Files\TapeTrack\TapeTrack Framework Server\TMSS10Server.exe" -J "*(US01|US03)"
</code>

[[server:start_stop|Start the Framework Server]].

===== Enabling Journal Entries =====

TapeTrack will no longer add journal entries for the Customers added to the registry entry. To restore the database back to adding journal entries:
[[server:start_stop|Stop the Framework Server]].

Open the registry and edit the ImagePath string entry to remove the ''-J value'' entry and click OK to commit the change.

[[server:start_stop|Start the Framework Server]].
