Hi,

We can run cobol program directly
But We can't run a DB2 program. We need to run this through the utility program like IKJEFT01.

eg. run the cobol program test

//STEP010 EXEC PGM=test
// COND=(0,NE)

Run the DB2 program test

//STEP010 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01
//SYSTSIN //*here u need to pass the program name test and plan details

Now you may not necessarily find IKJEFT01 coded in your JCL, so dont be surprised. Shops have their own proc executing the same.

a) All programs like this:
Code:
[b]//STEP010 EXEC PGM=test
// COND=(0,NE)[/b]

are not necessarily written in cobol but could be.

and
b) All occurrences of
Code:
[b]//STEP010 EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01 [/b]

are not necessarily running DB2 programmes but could be.
