system code page
Code page released for use on an application server. In Unicode systems, the system code page is always UTF-16 with a platform-dependent byte order. In non-Unicode systems, the system code pages are defined in the database table TCPDB. In non-Unicode single code page systems, there is only one system code page. In MDMP systems, there are multiple system code pages. The code page of the text environment of an internal session is always a system code page. The system code page of the current text environment is the environment code page of an internal session.
