The host to code page mapping table is a text file that defines the correspondence between host ID and code page. This table enables you to define conversion rules for each client (host). You must create a host to code page mapping table if there is a client (host) for which conversion based on the locale to code page mapping table is not desired. For example, the system locale of a client (host) running an English-language OS is English even if Chinese-language software is installed on the client.

The following shows the format of the host to code page mapping table:

host-IDcode-pagelinefeed-code

Legend:

: Single-byte space or tab

Notes

• Enter a host ID in upper-case letters.
• Each line must not exceed 1,024 bytes in length. If a line's length exceeds 1,024 bytes, an error results.
• A line beginning with an asterisk (*) is treated as a comment line and is ignored.
• A line consisting of only single-byte spaces and a tab or single-byte spaces and an end-of-line code is treated as a null line and is ignored.
• For the code page, you must specify the correct value supported in Windows for the language corresponding to the locale ID.
• If the same host ID is specified more than once, an error results.

Hitachi provides a default host to code page mapping table (hid-cp.ini). This default mapping table contains no valid lines. Edit the table as necessary. The host to code page mapping table is stored in the following directory:

JP1/Software-Distribution-installation-directory\COMMON\INV

The following shows the contents of the provided host to code page mapping table (default):

********************************************************************
*                  host id - code page list
********************************************************************
 
*#XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX                     1252

The locale to code page mapping table is a text file that defines the correspondence between locale ID and code page. This table enables you to define conversion rules for each locale ID. Note that conversion cannot be performed if the client's system information has not been acquired.

The following shows the format of the locale to code page mapping table:

localecode-pagelinefeed-code

Legend:

: Single-byte space or tab

Notes

• Each line must not exceed 1,024 bytes in length. If a line's length exceeds 1,024 bytes, an error results.
• A line beginning with an asterisk (*) is treated as a comment line and is ignored.
• A line consisting of only single-byte spaces and a tab or single-byte spaces and an end-of-line code is treated as a null line and is ignored.
• For code page, you must specify the correct value supported in Windows for the language corresponding to the locale ID.
• If the same locale ID is specified more than once, an error results.

Hitachi provides a default locale to code page mapping table (lcid-cp.ini). Edit this table as necessary. The locale to code page mapping table is stored in the following directory:

In this case, Unicode conversion is performed based on locale ID 1041 and shift JIS as the client's (host) data.
