HULFT-30048

In sending with sending-side conversion specified, half-width backslashes in the transferred data may be converted to half-width yen symbols

Phenomenon

In sending with sending-side conversion specified, half-width backslashes in the transferred data may be converted to half-width yen symbols.

Severity level

A: critical

Affected versions

Ver.10.2.0

Modified version

Ver.10.2.0A

Condition to reproduce

This phenomenon occurs when all of the following conditions are met:

  • "UTF-8" (8) is specified for Code Set for Transfer (cs4trnsfr) in the System Environment Settings

  • "Sending Side" (S) is specified for Code Conversion (KJCHNGE) in the Send Management Information

  • One of the following is specified for EBCDIC Set (CODESET) in the Send Management Information

    • Autoconfiguration (0) (*1)

    • Japan (Latin) for IBM (E)

    • Japan (Latin) Extended for IBM (F)

    • Japan (Katakana) Extended for IBM (H)

    *1

    :

    When the EBCDIC set is auto-configured, if IBM Kanji (I) is specified for Code Set for Transfer (KCODETYPE) in the Host Information, the EBCDIC set is converted as "Japan (Latin) Extended for IBM" (F), thus causing the phenomenon to occur.

  • One of the following is specified for Code Set for Transfer (KCODETYPE) of the receiving-side host that is registered in the Host Information

    • JEF (J)

    • IBM Kanji (I)

  • The send file data contains half-width backslashes

Alternative workaround

None

Status description

Half-width backslashes are correctly converted as half-width backslashes.
