Specifying a Unicode translation technique parameter value

You might need to change the value of the Unicode translation technique field on the LPAR Parameters (CCQPLPR) panel.

The value in the field is derived from the CCSID conversion string, 01208. CCSID 01208 specifies Unicode UTF-8 data

To find the value that you need to specify:
  1. Open a 3270 emulation session and find the 3270 emulation CCSID value, xxx, on the Session Parameters - 3270 Host panel, in the HostCode-Page field. In this example, the CCSID value is 037.

  2. From the MVS™ log, run /display uni,all. Find 01208-xxxxx (01208-00037 in this example) in the /D UNI,ALL output (at the bottom of this example). The suffix on the string 01208-00037 is the value you need to specify. In this example, the value is E.
