PDMCONNECT

Specifies the method that TSM uses to contact clients for scheduled operations. The default is the InfoSpeed exPress Data Mover (PDM), which forces TSM to use PDM for outbound connection requests. TSM initiates outbound connection requests to contact clients for scheduled operations using the same communication method used to field the incoming client scheduler connection. If MVS has IBM TCP/IP installed and the scheduled client is reachable over the TCP/IP network, consider using TCP for the PDMCONNECT option. This causes TSM to first try routing the outbound connect request over TCP/IP and, if the client is unreachable, to retry over PDM.

The advantage of using PDMCONNECT TCP is the reduced overhead of establishing such a short duration conversation. For more details, see the Quick Start.
