<p>Distributed data management (DDM) is used by iSeries Navigator
to actually move or copy the table. If the operating system on the source
system is running Version 4 Release 4 or later and if the operating system
on the target system is running Version 4 Release 2 or later, the operation
is performed using DDM over TCP/IP. Otherwise the operation is performed using
DDM over SNA. For a move or copy operation using DDM over SNA, the names by
which iSeries Access
knows the systems must be the same as the remote location names specified
in the APPC or APPN device descriptions used by DDM. For a move or copy operation
using DDM over TCP/IP, TCP communications must be enabled between the systems.
For TCP/IP, it is important to note that TCP/IP must be enabled between the
systems as they are known to iSeries Access.</p>
