Japanese Kanji/ Katakana Mixed

Details of CCSIDs and CCSID conversion for Japanese Kanji/Katakana Mixed.

Note:

The single-byte mode of CCSIDs 1390 and 5026 in EBCDIC contain lowercase characters in different locations to the typical or invariant layout for basic Latin. Therefore you must take care to ensure data is not lost when message data is converted to other CCSIDs. Also, the use of these CCSIDs as a queue manager's default CCSID can cause issues when communicating with other queue managers. For example, channel names using lowercase characters might not be correctly interpreted on the remote system. 5026 is a CCSID related to code page 930. CCSID 5026 is the CCSID reported on IBM i when the Japanese Katakana (DBCS) feature is selected.
5050 and 33722 are CCSIDs related to base code page 954 on AIX. The CCSID reported by the operating system is 33722.
Windows NT uses code page 932 but this is best represented by the CCSID of 943. However, not all platforms of IBM MQ support this CCSID.
On IBM MQ for Windows, CCSID 932 is used to represent code page 932, but a change to file ../conv/table/ccsid.tbl can be made that changes the CCSID used to 943.

All platforms support conversion between their native CCSIDs and the native CCSIDs of other platforms, with the following exceptions.
