After you have updated the SYSTEM.SYSCHARSETS, SYSTEM.SYSCCSIDS and SYSTEM.SYSSTRINGS catalog tables, use the ARISDBMA EXEC to load the CCSID information from the catalog tables into three CMS files (ARISCCS, ARISSTR, and ARISSCR).
The application server and the application requester use these files to enable the use of the new character set. For more information on the ARISDBMA EXEC, refer to the DB2 Server for VM Program Directory.
When you have completed steps 1 through 7, you can start the application server using the newly defined character set. If the database manager detects an error in the character set, it uses the value of CHARNAME that was used the last time the application server was started.
