<h1 class="topictitle1">Remote data areas</h1>
<div><p>A remote data area is a data area on a remote server.</p>
<p>You can access remote data areas by using Distributed Data Management (DDM).
You do not need to change or recompile an application program that resides
on one server when it retrieves data that resides on a remote server. To ensure
that you are accessing the correct data area, you may need to do one of the
following: </p>
<ul><li>Delete the standard data area and create a DDM data area that has the
same name as the original standard data area</li>
<li>Rename the standard data area</li>
</ul>
<p>You can create a DDM data area by doing the following: </p>
<pre> CRTDTAARA DTAARA(LOCALLIB/DDMDTAARA) TYPE(*DDM)
RMTDTAARA(REMOTELIB/RMTDTAARA) RMTLOCNAME(SYSTEMB)
TEXT('DDM data area to access data area on SYSTEMB')</pre>
<p>To use a value from a data area on a remote server in a CL program, use
the <span class="cmdname">Retrieve Data Area (RTVDTAARA)</span> command. Specify the
name of a DDM data area to bring the current value into a variable in your
program. If you change this value in your CL program and want to return the
new value to the remote data area, use the <span class="cmdname">Change Data Area (CHGDTAARA)</span> command
and specify the same DDM data area.</p>
<p>If you specify the name of a DDM data area when using the <span class="cmdname">Display
Data Area (DSPDTAARA)</span> command, the value of the DDM data area is
displayed, rather than the value of the remote data area. You can delete
a DDM data area using the <span class="cmdname">Delete Data Area (DLTDTAARA)</span> command.</p>
