Platform	Native CCSIDs
z/OS	935, 1388
OS/400	935
AIX	1383, 1386
HP-UX	1381 (see Note 1)
Windows	1381, 1386(see Note 2)
Compaq-OVMS, DEC-OVMS, Linux, NSK, Solaris, Tru64	1383
NCR, SINIX, DC/OSx	Not known
Notes: Code sets prc15 and hp15CN on HP-UX are represented by CCSID 1381. Windows uses code page 936 but this is best represented by the CCSID of 1386. However, not all platforms of WebSphere MQ support this CCSID. On WebSphere MQ for Windows CCSID 1381 is used to represent code page 936, but a change to file ../conv/table/ccsid.tbl can be made which changes the CCSID used to 1386. WebSphere MQ V5.3, or later, supports phase one of the Chinese GB18030 standard. On z/OS, Linux, Windows, and Solaris, conversion support is provided between Unicode (UTF-8 and UCS-2) and CCSID 1388 (EBCDIC with GB18030 extensions), Unicode (UTF-8 and UCS-2) and CCSID 5488 (GB18030 phase one), and between CCSID 1388 and CCSID 5488. Note: For MQSeries on AIX V5.1 only, the appropriate GB18030 PTF must be installed. On AIX V4.3.3 there is no operating system support for GB18030. On AIX V5.1, APAR IY26937 provides support for conversion between GB18030 (CCSID 5488) and Unicode. On OS/400, support is provided by the operating system for conversion between Unicode (UTF-8 and UCS-2) and CCSID 1388 (EBCDIC with GB18030 extensions). On HP-UX there is currently no support available on the HP11 operating system for GB18030. On HP11i, patch PHCO_26456 provides conversion support between GB18030 (CCSID 5488) and Unicode. Support is not provided for the conversion between GB18030 and 1388 (EBCDIC).
