<h1 id="configure">Configure OptiConnect</h1>
<p>Any iSeries&trade; server application that was written to use Distributed Data Management
(DDM) can use OptiConnect. This is true for existing applications as well
as new applications. Many applications that use an iSeries server database
can transparently use DDM without changes to the application. OptiConnect
uses the same mechanism as traditional DDM, where the DDM file controls access
to a database. Applications that access a database by using OptiConnect DDM
can also use traditional APPC DDM to access another database at the same time.</p>
<p>There are two ways to route data requests through OptiConnect. The first
is the <span class="bold">Fastpath OptiConnect</span> method and involves specifying
a special keyword in the DDM file. The second method involves setting up <span class="bold">Extended Function Path OptiConnect</span>. If you are using the
Fastpath method, OptiConnect agent jobs start in the OptiConnect Connection
Manager and run in the QSOC subsystem. These jobs follow the OptiConnect
job naming convention. Fastpath OptiConnect is the faster means of communication
due to shorter code path, but two-phase commit protocols are not supported.</p>
<p>If the Extended Function Path method is used, OptiConnect agent jobs are
started by the advanced program-to-program communications (APPC) attach manager
and run in QCMN subsystem. The agent job names follow the standard DDM naming
conventions for communication jobs. Two-phase commit protocols are supported.</p>

OptiConnect:</p>
