Answer / g.kalyani
COMMAREA is a communication area between COBOL and DB2. We
can pass maximum of 32k. If it is more than that we can use
the QUEUES

Answer / prabu
32K is the therotical maximum value. Cics Programming guide
recommends not to exceed more than 24KB. As rest of the
space will be utilised for other control operations.

Answer / rajani mazumder
Passing of data from one program to another is
achieved by COMMAREA defined in working-storage section.
The receiving program will receive the data in its linkage
section, under DFHCOMMAREA.
May be used in functions like RETURN/XCTL/LINK.maximum size
is 32k.

Answer / david staudacher
The COMMAREA is used to pass data between programs, and to
the next program in a pseudo-conversational sequence. The
COMMAREA may originate in either Working Storage or Linkage
Sections, but best practice is to avoid having identical
layouts in each. The best technique is to code the
following, just after the PROCEDURE DIVISION statement:
IF EIBCALEN = 0
EXEC CICS GETMAIN SET (ADDRESS OF DFHCOMMAREA)
LENGTH (LENGTH OF DFHCOMMAREA) END-EXEC
END-IF
Now you have just ONE copy of the Commarea - always in
Linkage. You don't to move it or worry over whether the
most current data is in Working Storage or Linkage. It's
ALWAYS in Linkage.
