Hi Shalom,
you can use the qsh command setccsid like this:
setccsid 819 mytarball.tar
Once again -- this will set the CCSID of the tarball. The CCSID of the
tarball is irrelevant, since the TAR utility doesn't use it. Running
this setccsid command would accomplish the same thing as changing the
CCSID on the FTP -- it'd accomplish nothing. The CCSID of a tarball is
meaningless since a tarball is not a text document.
What's important here isn't the CCSID of the tarball, but the CCSID of
the files that are extracted FROM the tarball. If you set the
QIBM_CCSID envvar prior to the extraction, they will get created with
CCSID 819 instead of 37 -- which is probably what you want.
(You could use the setccsid utility AFTER the extraction, but you'd have
to run it invdividually on each file that was extracted -- or use it in
conjunction with the "find" utility -- but it's a lot easier, IMHO, to
just set QIBM_CCSID prior to the extraction. )
