Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  IBM WebSphere Application Server Load       *
    *                  Balancer for IPv4 and IPv6 users            *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Some translated terms were modified     *
    *                      which can break automation based on     *
    *                      message output.                         *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    A review was conducted on the Load Balancer message file which
    lead to many corrections in punctuation and sentence
    structure. During translation, some messages were retranslated
    incorrectly into different terms.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The changes to the messages were reviewed and only necessary
    changes were made. Unnecessary translation were reverted back
    to their original translation.
    
    Examples of the modified translation terms include the
    Japanese translation of the word "Primary" and the Japanese
    manager report header.
