KINDLY CAN SOME ONE TELL THE WAYS BY WHICH WE CAN Differentiate
DIFFERENTIATE AN IMS ONLINE PROGRAM FROM AN IMS BATCH PROGRAM IN DETAIL.

If Entry statement was given in call statement then it is Batch program.
Let me know if u have any doubts. |

online:
program is invoked by the ims scheduler when the corresponding mess queue gets populated
transactions are read from message queues (transaction is normally the input which are entered at the terminals)
output send to terminals
batch:
program is invoked by the operator(using jcls)
input read from files
output is written into files( eg. reports) |

Another easy way might be just to have a look at the PSB for each of them.
Online would contain TP PCB as the first PCB in PSB
Batch program will contain Database PCB's. Also it will contain GSAM PCB's what you may not find in Online PSB.
Even the entry statement in program will tell you whether its online or batch. If it contains more than one TP PCB, it is Online else it should be a batch program |

Dangerous to distinguish BMP from MPP this way. A batch program may send messages and therefore have TP PCBs as well. |
