Hi,
What is multiple positioning in IMS DB?
Does it require some special Database set-up or programming algorithm?
Thanks.

Re: what is multiple positioning?
Multi positioning is an option where by IMS maintains a separate position on each hierarchical path. When more than one PCBs refer to the same DBD, it is called Multi positioning. And to say it in very layman terms - when you're using 2 different PCBs for the same database -- it is called multiple positioning.
Here is a link from IBM on Advantages of using multiple positioning.
Hope this helps.

No, Not really - you need to decide as a programmer if you might need multiple PCBs for the same program and that's it.harish123 wrote:Does it require some special Database set-up or programming algorithm?

Thank you very much Anuj.
This is very precise and to the point answer. I had been confusing myself by asking around and heard as more definitions than the people I asked about it.
