Change the Rational ClearQuest data code page

Before you change the data code page of an existing schema repository, you must check the following values:
  • Verify that your vendor database character set will support the target Rational ClearQuest data code page. Check the appropriate database character set of your vendor database with the supported values documented in the administrator topics of the Rational ClearQuest Help.
  • Verify that the data contained in your existing database set (that is, the schema repository and its associated user databases) is compatible with the proposed target Rational ClearQuest data code page. If there are characters in the database that are incompatible with the proposed target data code page value, they will need to be converted to characters that are supported in the new Rational ClearQuest data code page. See the administrator Help topics for information on developing a data conversion strategy and using the Rational ClearQuest codepageutil tool. You may also want to consult your vendor database documentation.
    Note: If you are converting from code page 20127 (US-ASCII) to any other code page, all of the characters in code page 20127 are contained in the other code pages. It is not necessary to run the Rational codepageutil tool for this change.

This page contains the following field:

Rational® ClearQuest® Data Code Page
The Maintenance Tool displays all 13 supported code pages.

For more information about the Rational ClearQuest data code page, see the administrator topics in the Rational ClearQuest Help and the IBM Rational ClearQuest and ClearQuest MultiSite Installation and Upgrade Guide.
