PREFERRED CONNECTION METHOD
<method>X</method>
The preferred connection is X, which is short for "Xmem", or cross memory services.
There may be instances when the server is known to be on a different LPAR, in which case you should use either of the following to override the preferred connection method and use TCP/IP instead:
<method>T</method>
in SERXMLBC & SERXMLCC.
or:
stem.method='T'
in SERXMLRC.
