Changing the locale of a gateway
You can convert your CICS Transaction Gateway installation to run in a supported language other than English.
The product is installed as US
English with a code page of 1047. The UNIX invariant code set is not invariant under UNIX System
Services. Changing locale, e.g. to Chinese (Zh_CN), will stop text files from being read correctly
and scripts will fail to run. To support running the Gateway in another locale you must convert it
to that locale. To change it to the current locale, run the following
command:
<install_path>/bin/ctg2localConverting the installation to another code page does not affect messages used by the CTGBATCH program. See CTGBATCH considerations for details.
To display the supported language and code set combinations, issue
the command:
<install_path>/bin/ctgmsgs -?Supported language and code pages
