PK03865: ADD VERIFICATION FOR 500-1208, 1208-500 CCSID PAIRS UPON STARTUP. STARTUP WILL TERMINATE IF THESE CCSIDS ARE MISSING.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• QM requires the existence of CCSID conversion pairs for 500-1208
  and 1208-500.  If these pairs are **NOT** defined on the LPAR
  whereon the QM data collector is running, QM will indeed
  function- but unpredictable display problems can occur as a
  result.  Code will be added to verify that these specific CCSID
  pairs exist- and if not, startup will terminate with appropriate
  messaging instructing the user to add these necessary CCSID
  pairs and restart QM.
  
  OTHER SYMPTOM: program names are garbled on QM screens.
  

Local fix

• Add CCSID pairs 500,1208 and 1208,500 to the UNICODE image on
  the LPAR running QM.
  
  Use the SET UNI command to make the change dynamically.
