Locale settings when executing DS from command line

The Data Services Management Console's Export Execution Command option creates a batch file and a job engine command file. One of the arguments in the engine command file is -PLocaleUTF8. However, this parameter is not on the list of arguments available to al_engine.exe.

Since -P is already defined as password, can we assume the name of this argument is -PLocale, and the value is UTF8? What other values are available?

Another undocumented argument is -LocaleGV. Is this a variation of the -GV (global variable) parameter, or is it completely different? What are the available settings?

Thanks

What you ar saying is that the -PLocaleUTF8 parameter indicates that the DS job should run usng the Unicode UTF8 codepage. If the parameter is not present, the job will run using the default codepage. Is this correct?

-PLocaleUTF8 has nothing to do with was locale engine will use at run time, that is controlled by engine locale in DSConfig.txt

this flag only indicates how to process the command line arguments that you are passing to al_engine
