FOR BIT DATA clause) is not converted. Otherwise all input and output character data is converted if the two machines have different code pages or CCSIDs.

For example, if DB2 Connect is used to access DB2 Universal Database for OS/390 or DB2/MVS data, the following happens:

1.DB2 Connect sends an SQL statement and input data to OS/390 or MVS.

2.DB2 Universal Database for OS/390 converts the data to an EBCDIC CCSID and processes it.

3.DB2 Universal Database for OS/390 sends the result back to the DB2 Connect workstation.

4.DB2 Connect converts the result to an ASCII or ISO code page and returns it to the user.

The table that follows shows the conversions that are supported between code pages (on the workstation) and CCSIDs (on the host).

For more detailed information about supported code page conversions, refer to the Administration Guide.
