It depends
If the cursor needs materialization then it gets executed
on "open cursor" like answer 1 and 2 say.
else
the query for the next row gets executed on each fetch.
Materialization happens f.e. when sorts are used.
You can close a cursor without having sqlcode +100.
Suppose a cics transaction reads a table (1.000.000 rows)
via an index : if only 20 rows are needed it will only
request 20 rows (1 each fetch) and then close the cursor.
In batch : if I get 100 pens and need to distribute them to
the people who requested some in order of date-requested, I
will close cursor as soon as 100 pens are distributed.
