Supporting UniCode Data

To support Unicode data, you must have first installed DataStage Server with the Install NLS for DataStage Server check box selected. You must then configure NLS options in DataStage Administrator.

To configure NLS options:

  1. In DataStage Administrator, select the Projects tab and then the project you want to configure NLS options.

  2. Select the NLS button to select NLS options.

    These options are available only if DataStage Server was installed with the NLS option.

  3. In the Server Maps tab, select the correct NLS map for the project default.

    This value is used in all the jobs to map Unicode data.

  4. If you do not see the correct NLS map in the list, you can click the Install>> button to view all available maps and load the particular map you require.

  5. Select the NLS tab to ensure that your selected map displays as the Project Default for individual jobs in the DRS stage.

    Note: This value can be overwritten at the job level by changing this value in the DRS stage.

  6. Click OK to return to the Projects tab.
