You are just awesome boss... That's just wonderful quick brush up... I never find a video of this kind on mainframe concepts atleast for quick reference ... Keep rocking... All the best
Thanks for refresher videos , these videos are used to revise our-self before any interviews. Can you please do for the special tools that are recently used in mainframe. or the other existing utilities like Expeditor, Version control tools like Changeman, then the scheduler CA7, File-Aid.. If you do videos for the tools it would be really helpful for those who had a gap in career and want to refresh. thanks in advance!
Thank you Kumar ! I also would like to see examples of how the COBOL coding is used for the ATM Machines, I want to do study about the ATM programming, can you help please ? Thank you Kumar !
I have been programming in COBOL for 12 years and didn’t realize it. I thought I was just learning the govt system. We have a super proprietary way of using cobol and assembly so I am seeking the learn a more general structure
Your videos are so good. before interview, It helps so much. it would be more helpful if you take topic on connecting CICS with web services, showing the source code and what all ulities we used to connect like that, can you put a detail video on that ?
As a fresher any technology is good . Mainframes are there from many decades and still we be there for decades..Feel proud to work in mainframe systems..
I am 55 years old. I have worked in microfocus COBOL on UNIX based machine. I want to update with Mainframe COBOL and looking for job also can you help me?
In COBOL, "NEXT" is used to transfer control to the next iteration of a loop, while "CONTINUE" is used to do nothing and continue with the next statement.
@@sanjeevnaruboina215 Check for IBM ZOWE an open source mainframe simulator tool, you can get a month trial wherein you would be able to connect to MVS where you can practice JCL/COBOL programs, i didn't try DB2, but I am sure there would be necessary provision for that as well.
Kudos to you bro!, as you're mentioning in the beginning of the video, for the detailed and in depth understanding where can we find the information? Can you please let me know? Thanks in advance!
Why are we talking abput Cobol when its monopolized by IBM and Micro Focus. Where is version that is Web Stack ready??? I could do a better job with PHP than Cobol now. IBM (Its Big Mess) is holding so that their mainframes will still survive. $hit!
I hope you find this useful. It's evident that you have strong feelings about COBOL and the way it's being managed by its major vendors. Indeed, COBOL has been a significant player in the IT industry for decades, particularly in mainframe environments. Let's unpack some of the points you've made: COBOL's Relevance: COBOL remains relevant because many critical systems, especially in the banking and financial sectors, still run on it. It's not so much about the superiority of the language itself but about the decades of legacy code that institutions find challenging to migrate. IBM and Micro Focus: While IBM and Micro Focus are major players in the COBOL world, especially in terms of compilers and platforms, they're not the only options available. However, their solutions are among the most mature and widely adopted in enterprise environments. Web Stack & Modernization: There have been efforts to make COBOL more "web-friendly". For example, Micro Focus offers solutions to expose COBOL applications as web services. There are also frameworks that allow integration of COBOL with modern technologies. But you're right in the sense that it doesn't compare to modern web-centric languages or frameworks in terms of ease of development or ecosystem. PHP vs COBOL: PHP and COBOL serve very different purposes. While COBOL is rooted in business logic, often for large, monolithic applications, PHP is a server-side scripting language tailored for web development. The two aren't directly comparable. However, with the right tools, you can integrate COBOL logic with a web front-end developed in PHP or another modern language. Legacy and Migration: One significant challenge for many organizations is that migrating from legacy COBOL applications to more modern platforms is expensive, risky, and time-consuming. COBOL's persistence isn't just about companies refusing to adopt newer technologies, but often about risk mitigation and financial pragmatism.
@@KumarITChannel I have been a Cobol programmer on the IBM and NCR Mainframes as well IBM S/36/38s. COBOL is the best language i know I can do wonders with it. Now that i have matured and grown into the world of Internet and Web Technologies, i am deeply disappointed because COBOL i still lagging. Why? IBM monopoly. I hate them since 1973. I know PHP is in a different domain but COBOL should have been there if not for 2 big bullies - IBM and Microfocus. Leaving these aside, can i ask you a favor to recommend some solution for COBOL on the Windows platform that can integrate with web techs run on both linux and windows? Or are you arms twisted by the bullies?
I can assure you, if you use DISPLAY or ACCEPT clauses on a mainframe, or you will be looking for another job. What this does is send/receive from the operators console. NEVER do this. Instead use parameters at run time. Also you vide iis geared to VS (MVS, O/S, ETC) Therr are other operating systems on the mainframe. You onviously were spoon fed on MVS I used to teach COBOL debugging for a large university. You need to be VERY careful of numeric input variables as it does NOT perform type checking. Therefore it IS possible to perform math with alpha characters. I have demo'd this to my students. Also there are different verions of COBOL as well. For examole COBOL-D does NOT have a perform clause.

Could you add IMS DB for beginners and refreshers video ??
Can you make a refresher video for IMS DB also plese..it will be so nice ... :)
Will be doing in 2021. Thank you!
Thank you Kumar ! I also would like to see examples of how the COBOL coding is used for the ATM Machines, I want to do study about the ATM programming, can you help please ? Thank you Kumar !
As a programmer of one of the largest, non stoppable ATM network, we NEVER used COBOL for the Network. It was all proprietary assembler code😊
Thank you so much for your every video :)
Awesome boss
Thank you.. very useful
If we are defining a data item with sign symbol, for eg: s9(05) . Will it take positive sign or negative sign ? what is the default sign ?
positive
The default would be positive. If you want to change it to negative you can move or pass the value.
01 WS-SIGN-NEG-NUM PIC S9(3)V9(2) VALUE -123.45.
I have been programming in COBOL for 12 years and didn’t realize it. I thought I was just learning the govt system. We have a super proprietary way of using cobol and assembly so I am seeking the learn a more general structure
BS
Can I access both VSAM and DB2 from a the same cobol Cics program?
Your videos are so good. before interview, It helps so much. it would be more helpful if you take topic on connecting CICS with web services, showing the source code and what all ulities we used to connect like that, can you put a detail video on that ?
Thank you kumar sir.
Great video, please have a similar refresher for DB2.............Please................!!!!!!!
Noted! Thanks! Shiraz
Thats my first programming language
I dumped it for a much better language - Assembly
Can you confirm for this video time 13:30 the part 01 WS-MONTH PIC 9(2) VALUE 05. Its group data name, can we use 01 for that?
Yes you can.
Awesome video
can u share the PPT???
New Mainframe Trainings Classes going on?
How is the scope of mainframe for freshers?
As a fresher any technology is good . Mainframes are there from many decades and still we be there for decades..Feel proud to work in mainframe systems..
@@KumarITChannel I worked years on some of the super minicomputers. DEC PDP, DG MV 1000 and 1500. Some others.
Please do refresher videos on db2 ims and cics also please
Sure Zareena that's next in my queue.
Happy learning! and thanks for watching.
@@KumarITChannel Waiting for db2 sql.... Thanks for all these refreshers
Hi, in the redefines explanation, could it be that the ws-date-2 field is missing two 1 byte fillers? one after ws-dd and one after ws-mm
Hi, any chance to get some examples of analysis and requirements gathering in mainframe? Thank you
Yes, soon! I will be making a video on it.
Very useful!
Thank you so much sir
Great content !
if you could share this PPT that would be more great !
hello what is the difference between right and left justified? 13:45
What is the scope of mainframe in current
Well explained!!
Amazing videos... Very helpful ❤️
Can you provide real time problem example so that it is get full info about this tq sir
Can you create based on the scenario interview point?
I want this notes... where I get it?
Spr bro👍
I am 55 years old. I have worked in microfocus COBOL on UNIX based machine. I want to update with Mainframe COBOL and looking for job also can you help me?
Hi Aditya, Please drop an email to kumaritchannel@gmail.com.
Hi Aditya
I want this ppt doc can you share plz
pls explain difference between next nd continue
In COBOL, "NEXT" is used to transfer control to the next iteration of a loop, while "CONTINUE" is used to do nothing and continue with the next statement.
Can u make video on COBOL program analysis
Sure definitely
I feel bad for his keyboard though
brother Tomarrow i have cobol interview any requried tips brother?
Can you please suggest good institute for mainframe courses in Chennai ? With contact numbers
No Idea. You can check for COURSERA or UDEMY or IBM Redbooks for self learning and it's good.
sample cobol program of student having 5 students id,names,3 subjects marks, calcutate total,avg,precentage,grade pz make vid
How can we practice jcl in windows?
You need to have the emulator installed on your system. Search for tn3270 emulator after the installation you can connect to mainframe.
@@KumarITChannel after installation what we have to do?
@@sanjeevnaruboina215 Check for IBM ZOWE an open source mainframe simulator tool, you can get a month trial wherein you would be able to connect to MVS where you can practice JCL/COBOL programs, i didn't try DB2, but I am sure there would be necessary provision for that as well.
Can you please send PC download version link, if possible add to description.
I hope you got the solution from my other Video.. Thank you! for watching.
Nice work, but too fast 😀
Kudos to you bro!, as you're mentioning in the beginning of the video, for the detailed and in depth understanding where can we find the information? Can you please let me know?
