Source and Data Warehouse Code Pages for Code Page to Unicode

For a list of the code pages that are supported for source and data warehouse databases, see System Requirements and Supported Platforms for Oracle Business Intelligence Applications.

The following environment variables need to be set before you begin the installation process:

• NLS_LANG (for Oracle). For instructions, see To set the NLS_LANG environment variable for Oracle databases.
• DB2CODEPAGE (for DB2). For instructions, see To set the DB2CODEPAGE environment variable for DB2 databases.

The following environment variables need to be set during the configuration process:

• Informatica Server Data Movement. For instructions, see To set up the Informatica Server in Informatica PowerCenter.
• SiebelUnicodeDB. For instructions on Windows, see Setting the Siebel UnicodeDB Environment Variable on Windows. For instructions on UNIX, see To set Siebel UnicodeDB on the Informatica Server if source and target databases are Unicode on UNIX.
• If the Informatica Server is running on Unix, then you also need to set the PMREPCODEPAGE environment variable appropriately. For example: PMREPCODEPAGE=MS932.

NOTE:  Informatica Server can only run <LANG> OS based on the source code page. For example, if the source code page is Japanese then the Informatica Server should be running on JPN OS.

The following information uses <LANG> = JPN as an example. If you are using a language other than Japanese, replace the code page with the appropriate language.
