Code Page Conversion Doubt

Code Page Conversion Doubt

 

  


Hi Gurus,

I have a database which had codeset defined as 932 (Japanese).




Database territory = JP
Database code page = 932
Database code set = IBM-932
Database country/region code = 81
Database collating sequence = UNIQUE





When I try to connect to this database using a client on AIX, I get error
as follows:

SQL0332N There is no available conversion for the source code page "819"
to
the target code page "UNKNOWN". Reason Code "1". SQLSTATE=57017

If I know correcltly, we have 2 options to correct the error (Please
Correct if I am wrong)

1) Change LANG settings in the User's Unix ENV to Ja_JP.
2) Update DB2CODEPAGE to the 932.

For Option1 to help me, I would need the Code Page conversion file sets to
be present on my Client.
For Option 2 its not required.

My question is how option 2 works without the Code Page conversion file
sets.

We are on db2 v8.2 on AIX 5

Regards,
Davvy
