I have two questions on COBOL + DB2 program.
i) If you execute a program that is program-A calls program-B and program-B calls program-C then howmany DBRMs,PACKAGEs and PLANs are created ?
ii) If you execute program-A, program-B and program-c which are individual programs then howmany DBRMs,PACKAGEs and PLANs are created ?

i) 1 plan the rest depend how many access DB2 , and how you bind - at least until DB2 10
ii) anything from 1 to 3 plans again depending on how you bind
- but you will always have 3 DBRMs .... what you do with them is down to you

Thanks for your reply.
But I need some more detail explaination.

You can find the detailed explanation in the manuals,
no reason to rewrite what has already been written and is there just waiting to be read!
