How can we stop journalling on InterSystems IRIS instance?

Question

Doing DISABLE^%NOJRN pauses journalling for the process. I need to stop/pause journalling for the whole instance. Is it possible?

You could always go to the System Management portal and edit each database that you are interested in and disable journaling. I know it's not specifically what you asked but it could help.

Thanks, Stephen, this works but it's a manual way, I was looking for some procedure to call – Evgeny Shvarov Dec 14 '20 at 08:46

In SYS.Database there is a method called DisableJournaling, additionally there is a EnableJournaling. – Stephen Canzano Dec 14 '20 at 13:42

This completely stops journaling:

ClassMethod StopJournaling()
{
    new $namespace
    set $namespace = "%SYS"
    set x = $$INT^JRNSTOP(.err)
    if (x=0) {
        write "Stopping journaling error code " _ err
    } else {
        write "Stopped journaling"
    }
    write !
}

What programming language is this code written in? – Peter Mortensen Sep 01 '21 at 08:49
Is it [ObjectScript](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cach%C3%A9_ObjectScript)? – Peter Mortensen Sep 01 '21 at 11:21
@PeterMortensen yes. Well, it's called `InterSystems ObjectScript` now, but the answer is valid for both. – rfg Sep 01 '21 at 13:11
