Relational


12/59

IMS /VS : Information Management

System / Virtual Storage

Hierarchical DBMS

IMS DB is to DB2 as DL/I is to SQL. IMS DB is DBMS and DL/I is DML

IMS DBs use VSAM data sets, either

KSDS or RRDS to store data.

Segments

Unit of data that DL/I transfers to and

from your program in an I/O operation.

Segment Type: Category of data

Segment Occurrence: One specific

segment of a particular type of data.

Unlimited occurrences of each segment

type.

Root Segment,Parent-child, Twin Segment


15/59

One Root Segment (with many instances)

Each root segment - Unique Key

Root Segment - Entry point to DB

IMS the limit is 15 levels, from root tolowest child.


16/59

DBDs

DBDs defines the individual segment

types to be contained in the data base andtheir relationship.

What is DBDGEN?

DBDLIB


17/59

PSBs

DBA designs a selected or logical view of

the database for each program that willaccess it.

Each programs view is then recorded in a

control block called Programcommunication Block.

PCB also indicates the access type the

program has w.r.t segment,RD/UPD/WR/DEL


18/59

Example of DBD

Explain this with a DBD of the project, for

which the training is being conducted.

20/59

PSBsA DBD describes the content and hierarchical

structure of the physical or logical

database. DBDs also supply information to

IMS in order to help in locating segments.

A PSB specifies the database segments an

application program can access and the

functions it can perform on the data, suchas read only, update,or delete. Because an

application program can access multiple

databases,PSBs are composed of one or more

program control blocks (PCBs). The PSB

describes the way a database is viewed by

your application program

Linkage Section

DL/I passes control to your program, it also supplies the

address of each PCB in PSB.

Entry Stmt

Entry stmt provides a mechanism for DL/I

to transfer control to your pgm.

GOBACK: To be coded to pass control

back to DL/I after pgm is completed.

DL/1


29/59

DL/1 A DL/I call consists of a call statement

and a list of parameters.

The parameters provide information that IMS

needs to execute the call.

This information consists of

the call function,

the name of the data structure that IMS

uses for the call,

the data area in the program into which IMS

returns data,

and any condition that the retrieved datamust meet.

Example of DL/1 Call
