HI all

Wish u a happy new year.
I am getting these warnings (here I am giving some of the examples of the warnings but I am getting in all stages ) in each stage/attribute of a Job where I am using a Join stage, one Transfer and two modify stages and few dataset/Teradata PE.
can you please help me to sort this out ?
1.
TDE_Preselect: File tera_cs.txt either does not exist or contains no values for ICU charset 'Adobe-Standard-Encoding';
ISO-8859-1(ASCII)for network attached and EBCDIC for Channel attached is used instead .
2.
TDE_Daily_Snapshot: File tera_cs.txt either does not exist or contains no values for ICU charset 'Adobe-Standard-Encoding';
ISO-8859-1(ASCII)for network attached and EBCDIC for Channel attached is used instead .

IBM's International Classes for Unicode, orICU, is the mechanism via which parallel jobs handle multiple character sets. You can also get information from the IBM website

The xyz_cs.txt files are the names of the character sets that are supported by the xyz stage. Clearly your Teradata character set file lacks a character set called "Adobe-Standard-Encoding". I think you need to inquire through your support provider.

For interest, NLS is in server jobs because it pre-dates ICU. ICU is a cleaner approach to character set mapping particularly in a C language (or PHP or Perl) environment. Server jobs have NLS because ICU did not exist when the need arose (version 2.5) for character mapping capability.
