When to copy the Japanese DBCS master sort table from a data file

 

Copy the Japanese DBCS master sort table from a data file in the following instances:

• When you plan on using the CPYIGCSRT command. In this case, you can copy the AS/Entry master sort file (#KAMAST) from the System/36™ or AS/Entry to the System i™ platform. The CPYIGCSRT command copies sort information from the #KAMAST file to the i5/OS^® master sort table (QCGMSTR). Delete the #KAMAST file from the System i platform after you complete the copy operation.

• When you have copied a version of the master table to a data file and you now want to restore that version.

You should always migrate or copy the Japanese DBCS master sort table together with the Japanese DBCS font tables.
