I was requested to activate the Unicode Conversion services eariler this year. When I determined that the pre-built image conversion tables would be about 39Meg (9862 pages) of real storage ( see APAR OA04069, Titled: AUTOMATIC LOADING OF PRE-BUILT IMAGE FOR UNICODE SERVICES ) I too was concerned. However, the question was: Where is this pre-built image stored in virtual storage. So I opened an ETR with IBM to ask that question. IBM's answer was in the common dataspace ( as Roland Schiradin indicated ). Also, IBM indicated that the occupied virtual storage in that dataspace would be page-fixed, thats were the requirement for 39Meg (9862 pages) of real storage. My next question was: Where in real storage? The answer from IBM was: Below the 2Gig line. I'm not sure why it makes a difference to page-fix that storage below the 2Gig line, but it is what it is.
It would have been helpful for APAR: OA04069 to have this information.
