UCS is required for DB2 V8, CTS V3 (using Webservices), ISPF (Display), Cobol Enterprise (depends on the functions). Perhaps other products too.
The default image is huge and is page-fixed storage (real!). AFAIR about 37 MB and for lazy sysprogs only. It creates a Common Data Space so watch your CADS settings (IPL). The first activation require an IPL. We have UCS since 2003 and no problems with our existing applications. I held a presentation about UCS last month at the german CICS Guide and next week for a local MVS group in germany.

We want to be sure that this will not affect running Production Applications ! Does anyone have experience with implementation of "Unicode Conversion Services" and the impact on working applications ?
