1. Code page 5348 is equivalent to code page 1252 with the addition of the Euro symbol.

2. While both 32-bit and 64-bit DB2 v8.1 are supported for database servers, only the 32-bit database client is supported on the Siebel Server.

3. Contact IBM for information about how to obtain FixPaks.

4. If you are running IBM DB2 UDB for OS/390 and z/OS with DB2 Connect v8.1, apply FixPak 5 or higher. If you are running IBM DB2 UDB for OS/390 and z/OS with DB2 Connect v7.2, apply FixPak 10 or higher. For information about how to obtain FixPaks, contact IBM.

5. Note that while both AL32UTF and UTF8 were supported for Siebel applications version 7.5 and prior, only AL32UTF8 is supported in Siebel 7.7

NOTE:  All Development Databases must use Binary (called Identity in DB2 UDB) sort order. If Dictionary sort order is used in Development Databases, SRF compilation errors will be encountered.
