Well, if you *don't* initialize Unicode On Demand by issuing a simple command
at IPL time, DB2 Version 8 will detect that Unicode has not been
initialized and
will attempt to load the huge pre-built image.
Again, I don't see this as a problem.  Apparently either does IBM since the
migration guide recommends removing CUN* members from parmlib.

I forgot to add... Even if you think 40M (or however big the pre-built image is now) is "huge", remember that by default under z/OS 1.8 and above all tables are loaded in non-page fixed storage by default (you can page fix them if desired). This doesn't apply to z/OS 1.7 though AFAIK.

Does any other component or product use Unicode on demand?

For example, Java uses Unicode; C, COBOL, and PL/I all have
Unicode support. Do any of these use the Unicode tables loaded
by Unicode on demand?
