1. Referred to as "character set" for MS SQL and Oracle servers, "code set" for IBM UDB LUW, and "CCSID" for IBM UDB on OS/390 and z/OS series.

2. If you are installing an IBM DB2 Unicode database, use UTF-8 as the code set and retain the hyphen. You must enter UTF-8 although the code set support is for UCS-2. This is because when you specify UTF-8 for the VARCHAR field, the VARGRAPHIC field is set to UCS-2 automatically. Therefore, UCS-2 is not specified in this parameter.

3. To download this FixPak, go to http://www.ibm.com.

4. As system performance can be affected by using these sort orders, use of these sort orders is only supported with assistance from Oracle's Application Expert Services. For more information, contact your Oracle sales representative for Oracle Advanced Customer Services.

Note that dictionary sort orders (collation sequences) are not supported for use in the following circumstances:

  • During an upgrade from one Siebel version to another. All databases being upgraded must use a binary sort order (called Identity in UDB).
  • When using Siebel Tools. Development databases where Siebel Tools is being used must use a binary sort order (called Identity in UDB).
