Re: What is the impact of changing the system CCSID?

I've wondered this, as well, esp. since V5R3 is more stringent about this. I've dug a little and think there is no problem if you are a 2924 single language system and have always been such. Your job gets a so-called default CCSID, which is based on the QLANGID, basically, so for ENU it is 37, which is what you want anyway. In DDS, if CCSID is not specified, it uses this default job CCSID, so you have had this setting through this default handling, I think.

I just changed ours - will see what happens.

CRTPF has a CCSID parameter that seems to apply when you create a flat file, no DDS.

What is the impact of changing the system CCSID (sysval QCCSID) from 65535
to say 37? How is data affected on the system?
