Hello elayarajack,

1) Diff. between Repeatable Read(RR) and Cursor Steablity(CS)

2) TWO PHASE COMMIT
This occurs when a programmer Issues a Exec CICS Syncpoint command. This is called two phase because CICS will first commit changes to the resources under its control like VSAM files and the DB2 changes are committed. Usually CICS signals DB2 to complete the next phase and release all the locks.

3) Display alternate rows of a table

Hope this helps,

Regards
