This section covers the following topics:
The application plan maintenance part of the Natural Tools for Db2 is used to generate JCL code to:
create database request modules (DBRMs) from your Natural programs,
maintain Db2 application plans and packages from within your Natural environment.
Two modes of operation are available: fixed mode and free mode.
In fixed mode, maintenance screens with syntax graphs help you to specify the correct commands. Complete JCL members can be generated using predefined job profiles. You simply enter the required data in input maps. The data are checked to ensure that they comply with the correct syntax. Then JCL members are generated from these data. The members can be submitted directly by pressing PF4 (Submi). But you can also switch to free mode by pressing PF5 (Free).
Pressing PF5 in fixed mode invokes the free-mode editor, which can be used to modify JCL code generated in fixed mode, without the syntactical restrictions imposed. In free mode you can submit the JCL member currently in the source area by pressing PF4 (as in fixed mode).
To invoke the Application Plan Maintenance function
On the Natural Tools for Db2
Main Menu, enter function code A
.
The Application Plan Maintenance menu is displayed:

The following functions are available:
Code | Description |
---|---|
PP |
Defines job profiles for DBRM creation and plan/package maintenance; see Prepare Job Profiles. |
CD |
Generates JCL to create database request modules. |
BI |
Generates JCL to bind a plan or package. |
RB |
Generates JCL to rebind a plan or package. |
FR |
Generates JCL to free a plan or package. |
LJ |
Invokes the free-mode editor. |
JO |
Displays job output.
Note: |
In addition, four parameters are available, which must be specified according to the selected function:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Object |
Specifies whether to maintain a plan (PLAN or
PL ) or a package (PACKAGE or
PK ).
|
Library |
Specifies the name of a Natural source library.
All existing
libraries except the ones beginning with |
JCL Member |
If a valid member name is specified, the corresponding JCL member is
displayed.
If a value is specified followed by an asterisk (*), all JCL members in the specified library whose names begin with this value are listed. If asterisk notation is specified only, a selection list of all JCL members in the specified library is displayed. If the JCL Member field is left blank, the empty free-mode editor screen is displayed. |
Node |
Specifies the number of the node to be used by the Entire System Server. The default number "148" can be overwritten. |
Within the maintenance screens in fixed mode, various windows can be invoked. These windows are accessed via 1-byte control fields.
To invoke a window
Enter S
in the corresponding control field.
If the control field displays an X
, data have already been entered in the
corresponding window.
In addition, the following PF-key settings apply in fixed mode:
Key | Function |
---|---|
PF4 | Generates JCL code and submits it. |
PF5 | Generates JCL code and enters free mode. |
PF6 | Scrolls to the top of a window. |
PF7 | Scrolls backwards in windows. |
PF8 | Scrolls forwards in windows. |
PF9 | Scrolls to the bottom of a window. |
PF10 | Either shows the previous screen (<) or displays a Entire System Server Logon window (Logn). |
PF11 | Shows the next screen. |
In free mode, JCL code can be edited and submitted. Editing of JCL code is done via edit and line commands; see Editing within the Natural Tools for Db2.
Generated JCL code is submitted by pressing PF4.
Apart from being submitted, JCL code can also be copied, listed, purged, retrieved from, or saved in a Natural library. All this is done via maintenance commands; see Global Maintenenance Commands.
If you want to generate JCL to create a DBRM or to bind, free, or rebind a plan or package, you have to specify a job name, job cards, and the name of a job profile. Thus, you have to prepare the job profiles first. Once your job profiles are defined, you can always immediately select the corresponding function if you want to create a new DBRM or if you want to bind, free, or rebind an a plan or package using your predefined job profiles.
To define a job profile
On the Natural Tools for Db2 Main Menu, enter function code
A
.
The Application Plan Maintenance menu is displayed.
On the Application Plan Maintenance menu, invoke the
Prepare Job Profile function by entering function code
PP
.
The Prepare Job Profile menu is displayed.

Defines job profiles for the plan or package maintenance functions. |
In addition, the parameter Profile
is available, which is relevant
to function codes D
and P
only. With function code
"J", Profile
corresponds to USER
.
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Profile |
Specifies the name of an already existing job profile. |
Job profiles can be maintained (that is, copied, listed, purged, retrieved from, or saved in a Natural library) via maintenance commands; see Global Maintenance Commands.
Note:
Job profiles are saved on the Natural system file FNAT.
All jobs generated by the Application Plan Maintenance function require job cards. With the Default Job Cards function, you can define a default job card for each user. The default job cards apply to all function screens on which you can generate JCL. Default job cards can be invoked and modified on all these screens. Asterisk notation (*) can be used to select the desired job card from a list.
To define a default job card
On the Prepare Job Profile menu, enter function code
J
and press ENTER.
The Default Job Cards screen is displayed.

On this screen, you can create and save your user-specific job cards. To do so, you can also read (directly or from a list) and modify an already existing default job card. Existing job cards can be purged, too.
Note:
All other function screens used to specify jobs contain the same two fields -
Job Name and Job Cards - as the
Default Job Cards screen. Thus, it is possible to override the
default job cards in each of these screens, too.
To modify the job name
Enter the new job name in the Job Name field and press ENTER.
To modify the job cards
In the Job Cards field, enter an S
and press
ENTER.
A window is displayed where you can modify all the job cards.
The Profile for Create DBRM Job function enables you to define profiles for the Create DBRMs functions. Job profiles for DBRM creation consist of JCL which includes the following predefined set of substitution parameters:

Apart from the specifications to be made in the Job Name, Job Cards, and Profile fields, to bind a plan, you have to specify the name of the plan and all DBRMs and/or packages that are to be bound into the specified plan.
You invoke the window to specify the DBRM members and/or package lists by entering
an S
in the MEMBER and/or
PKLIST field respectively. Either or both windows must be
invoked; otherwise, you are prompted by the system to do so.
Within the windows for DBRM and package specification, you can scroll using PF6 (--), PF7 (-), PF8 (+), or PF9 (++).
If Predict is installed and a plan is documented in Predict, the DBRM members
and/or package lists assigned to a plan in Predict can be read by entering
Y
for this option (default is N
). A maximum of 50 DBRM
members and/or 20 package lists can be read.
If you use this option and DBRM members and/or package lists have been successfully
read, the MEMBER and PKLIST selection
fields are marked with X
, and DONE
is displayed next to
the (Y/N) input field; FAILED
is displayed if:
inconsistencies in the member/package list definition were detected,
over 50 DBRM members or more than 20 package lists were defined for the specified plan,
no members or package lists were defined for the specified plan,
the plan was not documented in Predict at all.
Note:
If Predict is not installed, the field Read member name / package
list from Predict? does not appear on the above screen.
Pressing PF11 (Next) takes you to a second Bind
Plan screen, where you can specify further options of the Db2
