Re: Re[2]: SYSTOOLS.SPOOLED_FILE_DATA

It took me 1 - 2 years to convince where I work to change it to 37. There
were no issues, as expected.
I blame the IBM business partners that don't set it properly when they
install the server.

"If it was such a bad thing then why does IBM default it to that?" To make
it so unbearably painful that you pick the correct one for your location,
perhaps?
Many installations have changed this system value midday during production
and have never looked back.

Default system values for national language versions:

Here in the US 37 is a popular value.
