Error description

• When the codepages used in the client and the server are
  different (e.g. database:943, client:1208), dynamic sql snapshot
  may fail with SQL1224N.
  
  This failure occurs because the snapshot output buffer is found
  to be too small during codepage conversion of char strings in
  the snapshot output (because the converted char strings take
  up more space in the client codepage compared to the database
  codepage).
  

Local fix

• Use the same codepage in client/database.
