Configuring national language support

The VM Recovery Manager HA solution displays output messages in your preferred language. The following language locales are supported with UTF-8 character encoding:

Table 1. List of supported languages
S.No.	Language	Code
1	German	DE_DE
2	Spanish	ES_ES
3	French	FR_FR
4	Japanese	JA_JP
5	Brazilian Portuguese	PT_BR
6	Italian	IT_IT
7	Simplified Chinese	ZH_CN
8	Traditional Chinese	ZH_TW
9	US English	en_US

Prerequisites

You need to install additional filesets on the system to view the output messages in any languages other than the default (US English) language from the VM Recovery Manager HA solution.

To install the bos.iconv fileset, run the following command:

installp -ac -FXYd. bos.iconv

Install the bos.loc.utf.<language> fileset for that additional language which you want to use. For example, you can use the simplified Chinese (ZH_CN) locale support by running the following command:

installp -ac -FYd. bos.loc.utf.ZH_CN

Enabling locale setting

To enable your preferred language setting (locale), complete the following procedure:

To set a language for the KSYS subsystem, run the following command:

ksysmgr modify system ksys_lang=<language>

Example:

ksysmgr modify system ksys_lang=DE_DE

The following output is displayed:

KSYS ksys_lang has been updated

To set a language on the KSYS node, run the following command:
```
LANG=<language>
```
Example:
```
LANG=DE_DE
```

To verify locale settings, run any of the following commands:

LANG=en_US ksysmgr query system | grep "ksys_lang"

An output that is similar to the following screen is displayed:

ksys_lang: DE_DE

locale

An output that is similar to the following screen is displayed:

LANG=DE_DE
        LC_COLLATE="DE_DE"
        LC_CTYPE="DE_DE"
        LC_MONETARY="DE_DE"
        LC_NUMERIC="DE_DE"
        LC_TIME="DE_DE"
        LC_MESSAGES="DE_DE"
        LC_ALL=

After you configure locale settings in your KSYS subsystem and the KSYS node, the operation progress, status, and error messages are displayed in your preferred language.
