Why is the Load module name same as the program Id, for a DB2 -COBOL program? which is not the case in case of a normal COBOL program?

I believe that the name of the load module is controlled by the parameters specified in the link edit step of the compile and link. The name can be explicitly referenced in the JCL by coding:
//SYSLMOD DD DSN=LOAD.MODULE.LIBRARY(LOADNAME)
or by link edit parms in the SYSLIN dd name such as:
INCLUDE LIB(SUBPROG1)
INCLUDE LIB(SUBPROG2)
NAME PROGNAME(R)
If you have a difference between standard cobol and db2 cobol load modules, I suspect that it is to do with your link edit procedure.
