MPCPTP Device Properties

MPCPTP connections allow you to define a single transmission group that uses multiple write-direction and read-direction subchannels. Because each subchannel operates in only one direction, the half-duplex turnaround time that occurs with other channel-to-channel connections is reduced.

When defining a High Performance Data Transfer (HPDT) connection, use this device to specify the name of the transport resource list element (TRLE) definition for the Multipath Channel (MPC) group. Also, the TRLE must be defined as MPCLEVEL=HPDT.
