More--thought I'd sent this earlier, got called away. Following Jon's pointer, I trolled through a bunch of doc. All the things that set a default CCSID seem to be either "TAG" or "AUTOCVT" and I can't find any of those (or at least, none that have a CCSID) in any of our PARMLIBs. I also searched for "819", which seems to be IBM-speak for ISO8859-1, and didn't find that.
Our 3.1 (new) test system is definitely different from the old 2.4 system: if I do the "echo banana > j.txt" on the 2.4 system, it's untagged; on 3.1, it's ISO8859-1. That doesn't mean it's a 3.1 thing, as the system was not cloned. -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Rick Troth Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2025 9:04 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: USS file tagging question This is all new for me, but I needs to know, so I'm joining the fray.
