A Sharing Continuous Access Journal volumes
This appendix discusses non-Continuous Access Journal volumes that can be shared as Continuous
Access Journal volumes. It discusses the volumes of several features that can be used in full or
limited ways with Continuous Access Journal.
Continuous Access Synchronous and Business Copy volumes can be used extensively with
Continuous Access Journal. For complete information, see:
“Continuous Access Journal configurations with Continuous Access Synchronous” (page 134)
“Continuous Access Journal configurations with Business Copy” (page 147)
