Q1. How will you use two different DB2 qualifiers in a single COBOL program?
Suppose we have 2 tables EMP1 and EMP2 with same structure defined in two different DB2 qualifiers QUAL1.EMP1 and QUAL2.EMP2 now during first 15 days we want to use QUAL1.EMP1 and rest of the days QUAL2.EMP2 how will we do this.
We can create a single program and a single load for this program.

We can do our code (in this code define everything for both the tables) and on the basis of DATE function from COBOL we can see what's the date. on the basis of that we can call our query referring to required tables.

Explain how can you do the explain of a dynamic sql statement?
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)
