Plan is an access path for your program to access the DB2 table. During precompilation process, the SQL queries are converted into executable statements and stored in DBRM (Database Request Module). This DBRM will have a consistency token. During the bind step, this DBRM will be read and a plan will be produced. Few important parameters we include in Bind job is ISOLATION LEVEL ( how one transaction needs to be separated from another transaction which does some data modification on the table), QUALIFIER etc.

If a non-DB2 program calls a DB2 program, the calling program's name will be there in SYSIN of IKJEFT01 and the plan name will be that of the called program. But is a bind needed or a plan has to be created for the non-DB2 program also?

B37 abend during spufi?
In a Cobol-DB2 program, I am fetching rows from 4 tables using cursor and then based on the a field present in that table, It processes the information accordingly..for example stat-c is one digit field..if stat-c is 'D' then the a row is deleted from table and written those details in to a file. If the stat-c is 'U' then a row is updated (hardcoded what to update)in a table and written those details in to a file. If the stat-c is 'I' then a row is inserted in a table and written those details in to two files. The issue is i have to include the intermediate commits. When an abend occurs, due to commit statement db2 tables will be saved, But there will be lose of file contents. When we resubmitting the job associated with this program there will be insert ,update and delete anomolies to avoid that what measures could be taken?. The intermediate commit is nothing but issuing commit after massive inserts, updates and deletes(sum of 500actions)
