The LANG and NLSPATH environment variables are set for the z/OS® LDAP server and utility programs in the LDAP environment variables file. The default name and location for this file is:

/etc/ldap/ds.envvars

A sample ds.envvars file is shipped in /usr/lpp/ldap/etc. You can copy this file to /etc/ldap and modify its contents. Following is part of the sample file:

NLSPATH=/usr/lib/nls/msg/%L/%N
LANG=En_US.IBM-1047

There are no default values for these variables. Messages are also available in Japanese. The LANG variable should be set to LANG=Ja_JP or Ja_JP.IBM-939. These variables should also be set either in the environment variable file of the user or by exporting the variables in the shell for the user ID that runs the LDAP directory utilities.

There are symbolic links to the English language message catalogs in the following locations:

/usr/lib/nls/msg/C
/usr/lib/nls/msg/En_US
/usr/lib/nls/msg/En_US.IBM-1047

It is possible to run with either LANG=En_US, LANG=C, or LANG=En_US.IBM-1047 and access the English language LDAP message catalogs.

There are also symbolic links to the following Japanese language message catalogs:

/usr/lib/nls/msg/Ja_JP
/usr/lib/nls/msg/Js_JP.IBM-939
