Troubleshooting
Problem
The following steps can be used to find the NETSTAT connection information that corresponds to a specific remote journal connection.
Resolving The Problem
You should follow the below steps to find the port used for a specific Remote Journal connection. These steps are all performed on the source system and the Remote Journal must be active. The expectation is that there is only one remote journal environment for this source journal.
R710 with PTF SI46404 applied.
1. CALL PGM(QSYS/QJODSPRJ) PARM('JRNNAME' 'JRNLIB')
Replace JRNNAME with the source journal name and JRNLIB with the source library.
Messages will be sent to the joblog that will give the Local port.
2. NETSTAT - Select Option 3.
3. Press F15 to subset and enter 3777 (for IPv4) or 3888 (for IPv6) in the Remote port range Lower value. Press Enter two times.

NOTE: At R760 all RJ connections uses port 3888
4. You should see a connection that matches what was displayed in Step 1. This is the connection for that remote journal.
