  • "dsmc and dsmadmc" copyright message not translated using
    French, Korean or Japanese language with 7.1.3.0 client
    
    Error Description:
    
    When starting dsmc or dsmadmc session in French, Korean or
    Japanese language, the line:

    is not translated into the desired language.

    Rights
    Reserved.
    
    If using German language, as an example, to start dsmc, it is
    translated correctly:
    
    IBM Tivoli Storage Manager
    Befehlszeilenschnittstelle des Clients fr Sichern/Archivieren
      Clientversion 7, Release 1, Stufe 3.0

    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
    * The IBM copyright message must always be displayed in        *
    * English. For some languages, the copyright message might     *
    * also be displayed in the other language.                     *
    *                                                              *
    * The problem is that the English language version was not     *
    * always being displayed for some languages. Non-English       *
    * translation of the copyright message is optional, at the     *
    * discretion of the translator, and thus not guaranteed to     *
    * always be displayed.                                         *
    ****************************************************************

    * Apply fixing level when available. This problem is currently *
    * projected to be fixed in level 7.1.6. Note that until the    *
    * fixing level is available, this information is subject to    *
    * change at the discretion of IBM.                             *

Problem conclusion

  • The client has been fixed so that the English language copyright
    message is always displayed, regardless of which language the
    client is configured to use. A translated version of the
    language is not guaranteed to be available. If the translated
    version is available, it will be displayed after the English
    language version of the copyright message.
