I was actually able to reproduce it, I had only changed local time and not the UTC time.
IHS powered by apache doesn't start with the following error, for example: (121)EDC5121I Invalid argument. (errno2=0xC22C001E): apr_xlate_open() failed Doing iconv -f UTF-8 -t IBM-1047 < my_ascii_file actually doesn't externalize an error, just says invalid argument: iconv: Conversion from codeset "UTF-8" to "IBM-1047": EDC5121I Invalid argument. I'm not sure any iconv actually succeeds.

I would like to see the specific reason code. My reading is that the error occurs on a call to CUNLINFO, which is optional in that it did not exist before V1R10 and you can use Unicode services very effectively without CUNLINFO. That may be why iconv succeeds, at least in some circumstances. CUNLINFO does not do translation, it tells you about your intended translation. You can call CUNLINFO (writing from memory here) and determine that translation from CCSID nnnnn to CCSID mmmmm is or is not supported, that CCSID nnnnn is single-byte EBCDIC or is MBCS ASCII, and so forth. Peripheral to actual translation.
