i have seen one jcl in that they are directly executing COBOL load lib
i don't know how it is finding the corresponding plan there is no DSN RUN command in the jcl.
my doubt is "is this possible in cobol-db2 program?"

Hello,

Yes, cobol/db2 programs may be linkedited into an executable load module.

Speak with your dba about CAF (call attachment facility).

Before investng much time in the mechanics, suggest you make sure this is permitted on your system.

On many systems it is not permitted. . .

If your installations supports IMS BMPs or DBBs, they are also possible batch interface solutions, but will require some modifications to your module and entry code.

since you don't execute a library,
what are you saying?

provide the EXEC statement in question.
