BIND

Instructs the DB2 ECM to create a DBRM file to use for manual binding. Also optionally used to specify an alternative filename for and/or path to the created DBRM file.

Syntax:

BIND
BIND=[path]DBRMfilename
NOBIND

Parameters:

path
The full path to the output directory for the created DBRM file. If not specified, the DBRM file is written to the current directory, the directory specified by the BINDDIR directive, or the directory specified by the HCOBND environment variable. See Binding for details.
DBRMfilename
The prefix for the DBRM filename. The default prefix is the program name, and the default extension is .bnd, which is mandatory and automatically appended if not specified.

Properties:

Default: NOBIND
Synonym: BINDFILE

Comments:

When you specify a path using BIND, it takes precedence over that specified by all other output options, if set. For complete information on DBRM file output options, including how to determine the current output file location, see Binding.

Example:

db2(bind=d:\mybinds\test.bnd)
