Confirming the Host-Code Page for the MVS Server
Summary: This section describes the steps that you must perform to verify the setting
for your Host-Code Page. The Host-Code Page setting specifies the table that
the application uses to map the EBCDIC codes on the server to the
appropriate single-byte ASCII codes on the PC during the transfer of data.
Step 1 Edit the INI#ACV file.
Step 2 Set the value of the sbiDBS.CP variable in the INI#ACV file to one of the
Host-Code Page values in Table 4-6.
Note: The default value for the sbiDBS.CP variable is CP037.
Step 3 Start PATROLDB to activate the MVS Server.
