DB2 bind on z/os
BIND and REBIND options for packages and plans
There are several options you can use for binding or rebinding plans and packages. Some of the options are common for both bind and rebind and for both plans and packages.
Defaults: The default for an option is the value used if you omit the entire option.
- A default of plan value for BIND PACKAGE means that the default is the same as the value determined during the bind or rebind of the plan to which the package is appended at run time.
- A default of existing value for REBIND PLAN or REBIND PACKAGE means that the default is the value that was determined during the previous bind or rebind of the plan or package that you are rebinding.
Catalog records: The DB2® catalog records information about plans and packages, chiefly in the tables SYSIBM.SYSPLAN and SYSIBM.SYSPACKAGE. The descriptions of where the options record information omit the constant qualifier, SYSIBM, of those table names.
For all other cases, the option descriptions note the specific defaults, which DB2 assigns at bind time. If a specific default value exists, that value is underlined.
- ACQUIRE bind option
The ACQUIRE bind option specifies that resources for the packages in the plan are to be acquired when the application first accesses them. - ACTION bind option
The ACTION option determines whether the object (plan or package) replaces an existing object with the same name or is new. - APCOMPARE bind option

The APRETAINDUP option determines whether or not DB2 retains an old package copy when access paths of the old copy are identical to the incoming copy. - APREUSE bind option
The APREUSE option specifies whether DB2 tries to reuse previous access paths for SQL statements in a package. DB2 uses information about the previous access paths from the directory to create a hint. - ARCHIVESENSITIVE bind option
The ARCHIVESENSITIVE option determines whether references to archive-enabled tables in both static and dynamic SQL statements are affected by the value of the SYSIBMADM.GET_ARCHIVE global variable. - BUSTIMESENSITIVE bind option
The BUSTIMESENSITIVE option determines whether references to application-period temporal tables in both static and dynamic SQL statements are affected by the value of the CURRENT TEMPORAL BUSINESS_TIME special register. - CACHESIZE bind option
The CACHESIZE option determines the size (in bytes) of the authorization cache acquired in the EDM pool for the plan. - COLLID bind option
The COLLID option specifies that any DBRMs in the plan are to be bound to packages. - CONCURRENTACCESSRESOLUTION bind option

The CURRENTSERVER option determines the location to connect to before running a plan. - DBPROTOCOL bind option
The DBPROTOCOL option
specifies the protocol to be used when connecting to a remote site.
- DEFER and NODEFER bind options
The DEFER and NODEFER options determine whether to defer preparation for dynamic SQL statements that refer to remote objects, or to prepare them immediately. - DEGREE bind option
The DEGREE option determines whether to attempt to run a query using parallel processing to maximize performance. - DEPLOY bind option
The DEPLOY option deploys a non-inline SQL function or a native SQL procedure. - DESCSTAT bind option
The DESCSTAT option determines whether DB2 builds a DESCRIBE SQL descriptor area (SQLDA) when binding static SQL statements. - DISCONNECT bind option

The DYNAMICRULES option determines the rules that apply at run time for certain dynamic SQL attributes. - ENABLE and DISABLE bind options
The ENABLE and DISABLE options determines which connections can use a plan or package. - ENCODING bind option
The ENCODING option specifies the application encoding for all host variables in static statements in a plan or package. - EXPLAIN bind option
The EXPLAIN option causes the bind process to obtain information about how SQL statements in the package or packages are to execute. - EXTENDEDINDICATOR bind option
The EXTENDEDINDICATOR option determines whether DB2 recognizes extended indicator variables when the associated package is run. - FILTER bind option
The FILTER option lets you delete a set of queries in the SYSIBM.SYSQUERY table under a {tag} value that is specified by the SYSQUERY.USERFILTER column. - FLAG bind option
The FLAG option determines the messages to display during the bind process. - GENERIC bind option
The GENERIC option specifies one or more bind options that are supported by the target server, but are not supported as options for BIND PACKAGE or REBIND PACKAGE on the DB2 for z/OS® subsystem on which the BIND or REBIND command is issued. - GETACCELARCHIVE bind option
The GETACCELARCHIVE bind option specifies whether a static SQL query that is bound for acceleration retrieves archived data on the accelerator, instead of active data. - IMMEDWRITE bind option
The IMMEDWRITE option indicates whether immediate writes are to be done for updates that are made to group buffer pool dependent page sets or partitions. - ISOLATION bind option
The ISOLATION option determines how far to isolate an application from the effects of other running applications. - KEEPDYNAMIC bind option
The KEEPDYNAMIC option determines whether DB2 keeps dynamic SQL statements after commit points. . - LIBRARY bind option
The LIBRARY option determines what partitioned data set or zFS file path to search for the DBRM that is listed in the MEMBER option. - MEMBER bind option
The MEMBER option determines what database request modules (DBRMs) to include in the package. - OPTHINT bind option
The OPTHINT option controls whether access paths that are specified in PLAN_TABLE instances are used for static SQL statements. - OPTIONS bind option
The OPTIONS option specifies which bind options to use for the new package when the COPY option is specified. - OWNER bind option
The OWNER option determines the authorization ID of the owner of a plan or package. - PACKAGE bind option
The PACKAGE option determines the packages to bind or rebind. - PATH bind option
The PATH option determines the SQL path that DB2 uses to resolve unqualified stored procedure names in CALL statements, in user-defined data types, and in functions. - PATHDEFAULT bind option
The PATHDEFAULT option resets the PATH value for a package or plan to SYSIBM, SYSFUN, SYSPROC, SYSIBMADM, plan qualifier, or to SYSIBM, SYSFUN, SYSPROC, SYSIBMADM, package qualifier . - PKLIST and NOPKLIST bind options
The PKLIST option determines the packages to include in a package list. The NOPKLIST option deletes packages from a package list. - PLAN bind option
The PLAN option determines the plan or plans to bind or rebind. - PLANMGMT bind option
The PLANMGMT option retains, during a rebind operation, all relevant package information (such as metadata, query text, dependencies, authorizations, and access paths) in catalog tables and in the directory. - PROGAUTH bind option
The PROGAUTH option specifies whether DB2 performs program authorization checking to determine whether DB2 can execute a plan. - QUALIFIER bind option
The QUALIFIER option determines the implicit qualifier for unqualified names of tables, views, indexes, and aliases contained in the plan or package. - QUERYACCELERATION bind option
The QUERYACCELERATION bind option specifies whether a static SQL query is bound for acceleration, and if so, with what behavior. - QUERYID bind option
The QUERYID option frees entries in the SYSIBM.SYSQUERY table, and the SYSIBM.SYSQUERYPLAN table or the SYSIBM.SYSQUERYOPTS table. - RELEASE bind option
The RELEASE option determines when to release resources that a program uses, either at each commit point or when the program terminates. - REOPT bind option
The REOPT option specifies whether DB2 determines an access path at run time by using the values of host variables, parameter markers, and special registers. - ROUNDING bind option
The ROUNDING option specifies the rounding mode at bind time. Use rounding mode to manipulate DECFLOAT data. - SQLERROR bind option

The SWITCH option causes the previous copy or original copy of a package to become the current copy of the package. - SYSTIMESENSITIVE bind option

The VALIDATE option determines whether to recheck, at run time, errors of the types "OBJECT NOT FOUND" and "NOT AUTHORIZED" that are found during bind or rebind.
