Determines how session establishment is performed for application programs that issue the CLSDST macroinstruction with the PASS option as part of their session establishment procedure. The application program acts as a secondary logical unit (SLU).

The PLU acknowledges the capability of the SLU during session establishment. If you have coded the logon performance enhancement in the PLU's application program, only a single BIND is issued to establish the session.

Some SLUs are incompatible with this enhancement. If your SLU is incompatible with this enhancement, code FASTPASS=NO.

Note: FASTPASS applies only to application programs (acting as SLUs) that establish sessions with TSO.
FASTPASS=NO
Specifies that an unenhanced logon procedure requiring multiple binds is performed for application programs that issue the CLSDST PASS macroinstruction with the PASS option as part of their session establishment procedure.
FASTPASS=YES
Specifies that the logon performance enhancement is performed for application programs that issue the CLSDST macroinstruction with the PASS option as part of their session establishment procedure.
