Setting the DB2CONNECT_ENABLE_EURO_CODEPAGE Environment Variable

The DB2 Connect system environment variable, DB2CONNECT_ENABLE_EURO_CODEPAGE, determines whether or not support for the euro symbol is implemented. The default value of this variable is NO. To ensure the euro symbol is implemented correctly on the z/OS host, set this variable to YES.

When you set the DB2CONNECT_ENABLE_EURO_CODEPAGE parameter to YES, the Unicode code page on the DB2 Connect client computer is mapped to a comparable CCSID which includes support for the euro symbol. It is recommended that you set the value of this variable to YES on all DB2 Connect computers used to connect to the Siebel database on the z/OS host. For additional information on the DB2CONNECT_ENABLE_EURO_CODEPAGE environment variable, see the relevant IBM documentation.
