Hi,

Can anyont tell me in a cics/Db2 application program where will we specify the path of the plan which was produced during the bind operation?

baskkarsubbian,

You need to update the RCT(resource control table).

Hi,

during BIND-processing you create a package within a so called collection. This combination of collection-name and package-name (preferably with wildcards) is then referenced by a DB2 plan.

To use this plan, you have to define within the CICS region the object types
- DB2Entry (in it's definition the DB2 plan name is specified)
- DB2Transaction (in it's definition you combine the transaction name of your application, i.e. a 4-letter literal, with the before created DB2Entra name)

Don't forget to "install" these definitions via CEDA transaction, and you can use your packages with the transaction.

regards
Christian
