IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Set the Coded Character Set Identifier (CCSID)
When the Coded Character Set on the agent system is not the same as that on the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server the text displayed for messages and other attribute fields might not be displayed correctly. To correct this situation you can change the CCSID defined for the QAUTOMON user profile on the Monitoring Agent for IBM i OS. Use the Change User Profile (CHGUSRPRF) command on the Monitoring Agent for IBM i OS system to set the CCSID to be compatible with the server. For example, the following command changes the CCSID to 5035 for Japanese, combined SBCS/DBCS:
CHGUSRPRF USRPRF(QAUTOMON) CCSID(5035)
To ensure that this change is maintained with new installations of the agent, you can add a property to the QAUTOTMP/KMSPARM.KBBENV agent properties file. Add property KA4_QAUTOMON_CCSID followed by an equal sign and the desired CCSID number. For example, adding the following line to the properties file sets the CCSID for the QAUTOMON profile to 5035:
KA4_QAUTOMON_CCSID=5035
You must stop and restart the agent after using the CHGUSRPRF command or adding the KA4_QAUTOMON_CCSID line to the properties file for the change to take affect.
