The COBOL2 CICS Translator option was removed from CICS TS and then re-introduced by APAR PQ84313. It is my understanding that if you use COBOL3, then you can use either the DBCS or NODBCS compiler option - but that with "older" COBOL and COBOL2 translator options, you will have problems with using the DBCS compiler option.
Recommendation(s): Make certain that you use a "supported" translator - and if you need/want COBOL2 support that you have APAR PQ84313 installed. Use COBOL3 for translating any "currently supported COBOL compiler" source code.
