I am trying the following command after IPLing with a 2016 date and it works
fine:
iconv -f UTF-8 -t IBM-1047 < my_ascii_file
Could anyone reproduce the error described in the red alert?
Thanks and Regards,
Leo

You have to install ++Apar oa48941 which belongs to Unicode Services and
updates one LMOD in each Lpalib, Linklib and Nucleus.
