LOCALCCSID
The LOCALCCSID system initialization parameter specifies the default CCSID for the local region.
The LOCALCCSID parameter is used to set the default encoding for some CICS® API commands. API commands that use the LOCALCCSID are documented as such, but most APIs (for example, the CONTAINER GET and PUT commands) do not use this parameter.
