REMOTE_DELIM

This parameter specifies an optional encoding for which the specified REMOTE_CHARSET is based. The encoding can be either ASCII or EBCDIC. If specified, the encoding must be the first option in the list.

Used only for UNICODE transfers (CODE_FLAG=UTF8 or CODE_FLAG=UTF16).

Edit Transfer Record Screen

Fields modified on the Edit Transfer Record screen for Unicode transfers.

Options Encoding

In addition to the existing options, UTF8 (31k pack) or UTF16 (31k pack) have been added.

Fields added to the Edit Transfer Record screen for Unicode transfers.

Local System Parameters Character-set

Specifies the local character set that the CA XCOM Data Transport uses for Unicode transfers (Encoding=UTF8 or Encoding=UTF16).

Local System Parameters Record Delimiter

Specifies an optional encoding for which the specified Local Character-set is based. The encoding can be either ASCII or EBCDIC. If specified, the encoding must be the first option in the list.

Additionally, specifies a colon separated list of record delimiters that are used to mark and detect the end of a record.

Remote System Identification and Parameters Character-set

Specifies the remote character set that CA XCOM Data Transport uses for Unicode transfers (Encoding=UTF8 or Encoding=UTF16).

Remote System Identification and Parameters Record Delimiter

Specifies an optional encoding for which the specified Remote Character-set is based. The encoding can be either ASCII or EBCDIC. If specified, the encoding must be the first option in the list.

Additionally, specifies a colon separated list of record delimiters that are used to mark and detect the end of a record.

Misc Options Character-set Input Error

Identifies the appropriate action when the input file contains data that is not consistent with the specified input character set.

Misc Options Character-set Convert Error

Identifies the appropriate action when the input file contains characters that cannot be converted as they are not included within the output character sets character repertoire.

Detail History Record Screen

Fields modified on the Detail History Record screen for Unicode transfers.

Encoding

In addition to the existing options, UTF8 and UTF16 have been added.

Fields added to the Detail History Record screen for Unicode transfers.

Character Set Input Error & Replace Count

For transfers using Unicode encoding scheme, specifies the appropriate action when the input file contains data that is not consistent with the specified input character set. The replace count is the number of characters for which the action was taken. For transfers on z/OS systems, the count is the number of data buffers for which the action was taken.

Character Set Convert Error & Replace Count

For transfers using Unicode encoding scheme, specifies the action when the input file contains characters that cannot be converted. The characters are not included within the output character sets character repertoire. The replace count is the number of characters for which the action was taken. For transfers on z/OS systems, the count is the number of data buffers for which the action was taken.

Character Set

Specifies the character set of the data.

Record Delimiters

Specifies the encoding scheme for the character set and a set of possible delimiters to use for file processing.

Global Parameters Screen

Fields added to the Global Parameters screen for Unicode transfers.

Action to Take On Input Character Error

Specifies the default action when the input file contains data that is not consistent with the specified input character set.

Action to Take On Convert Character Error

Specifies the default action when the input file contains characters that cannot be converted as they are not included within the output character sets character repertoire.

Default Character set

Specifies the default character set CA XCOM Data Transport uses for Unicode transfers (Encoding=UTF8 or Encoding=UTF16).

Default Delimiter

Specifies default encoding for which the specified Character-set is based. The encoding can be either ASCII or EBCDIC. If specified, the encoding must be the first option in the list.

Additionally, specifies a colon separated list of record delimiters that are used to mark and detect the end of a record.

New and Changed Messages

This section describes the new and changed messages to support this enhancement.

0898I

Unicode conversion detected malformed characters.

Reason:

Malformed characters were detected during Unicode conversion.

Action:

None. The detected malformed characters can be found in the transfer trace.
