Ibm Mainframes: CICS Training Class-06

The document provides an overview of the interaction between CICS and DB2 on IBM mainframes. It discusses how CICS provides an interface to DB2 and how DB2 requires a CICS attachment facility to connect. It also describes how CICS programs can issue SQL commands to access DB2 databases, and how the DB2-CICS connection is defined in the resource control table (RCT). Finally, it lists some common CICS-supplied transactions like CESN for sign on and CESF for sign off.

 CICS program can issue commands for DB2 with SQL in order to
access DB2 data base.
