You only have to rebuild TNMCDB2I if: 1. you change the DB2 subsystem you will be using with the CA-Telon TDF, or 2. the source for the TNMCDB2I program itself has been changed. Each subsystem is associated with a different DBRM library. If you change subsystems, you need to recompile and bind CA-Telon’s TNMCDB2I DB2 interface program with a different PLAN pointing to a new DBRM, because the PLAN identifies the DBRM library. The source for TNMCDB2I (for COBOL language: #DB2ICOB for the TSO TDF and #DB2ICOC for the CICS TDF; for PL/I language: #DB2IPLC for the CICS TDF and #DB2IPLI for the TSO TDF) has changed in the upcoming release 4.0 (to allow for a maximum length of 32767 for VARCHAR columns), so it will be necessary to recompile and bind to pick up these changes.
