Yeah i got it icon_smile.gif Thanks a lot.
Now my last question:
IF i execute pgm1 in CICS region,(it means that a copy of the load module for pgm1 which might be taken from (LPAR or DFHRPL) and it is stored in CICS MEMORY)

so i have pgm1,pgm2,..........pgm999,pgm100000
there will 100000 copies of load module which is available in the CICS Memory.
say if 1 lakhs different programs are running simultaneously. obviously CICS memory gets filled..? it might be a huge probelm right??

at This point of time INternally what kind of things will happen inside the CICS??? icon_confused.gif

CICS can run short on memory. This is called a short-on-storage condition and in some regions is a daily occurrence (depending on how big the programs are and how many are running and whether they are 24-bit or 31-bit, among other things). CICS handles memory management and recognizes when it goes short-on-storage (and when it stops being SOS) so while I cannot say for sure, never having worked on CICS internal system software, I suspect CICS can handle excessive numbers of transactions and programs. I don't know the exact mechanisms -- you would have to discuss this issue with IBM to find out -- but there have been regions running 10,000 terminals so the capacity to handle large volumes of work is there.

You would have to contact CICS support at IBM to get this answered. Depending upon your support contract, you may or may not be able to get an answer.

At one time, many moons ago, when multiple occurrences of the same program were being executed, only 1 copy of the PROCEDURE DIVISION was in memory, and each user had their own copy of WORKING STORAGE and COMMAREA of course.

Unless i missed a memo (which happens more and more often icon_smile.gif ), re-entrant code still works this way. The use count is incremented and decremented to determine if the module is currently "in use".
