Which of the following table contains information about DB2?
-
Temporary Storage Table (TST)
-
Program Processing Table (PPT)
-
Resource Control Table (RCT)
-
File Control Table (FCT)
The Resource Control Table (RCT) in CICS contains DB2 interface information including transaction-to-plan bindings and security parameters. RCT defines which CICS transactions can access which DB2 plans and resources. TST manages temporary storage queues, PPT contains program and mapset definitions, and FCT controls file access for VSAM files.
The Resource Control Table (RCT) is the CICS macro-defined table used in the CICS-DB2 Attachment Facility that maps CICS transactions to DB2 plans and controls how CICS connects to and interacts with DB2 (thread limits, plan names, etc.) — making it the table most directly tied to DB2 access from CICS. PPT (Program Processing Table) and FCT (File Control Table) are general CICS tables for program and VSAM/file definitions respectively, unrelated to DB2 specifically, and 'Temporary Storage Table' isn't a standard CICS table name at all (CICS has Temporary Storage queues, not a TST).
