Literally true: there has to be a client acceptor of some kind so that
a session
is initiated, which is typically via dsmCAD, which should adhere to
client port
specifications.

define clientaction OWGORAD4 domain=UNIX90 action=restore
objects=/user/bill/myfile.txt
...
Will this create a 1 time job that will push the file or directory
listed in "objects" to the client machine?

Yes - It will incite the initiation of a session. You want SCHEDMODe
PRompted,
for the server to do the initiating, which gets it done more, um,
promptly.
When using PRompted, watch out for PRESchedulecmd and POSTSchedulecmd,
which
would thus get invoked every time.
The client manual lays out the methodology of using firewalls, including
defining in the server the port to be used to talk to the client.
