Internationalization support
The Probe for Nortel CNM supports multi-byte character sets. To view the character sets
correctly, you must configure the locale settings on the host machine correctly. Each
multi-byte character set is configured slightly differently on each platform. The following
section describes example locale configurations on a UNIX platform; other character sets on
other platforms will be configured in a similar way.
Example multi-byte character set configuration on Solaris
The following steps describe how to configure Solaris to use the Japanese character set:
1.
Install the necessary components for Japanese on to the host machine using the Solaris
CD.
2.
Set the
LANG
and
LC_ALL
environment variables to
ja_JP PCK
. This uses SJIS
encoding.
Note:
You may have to set
LANG
in the host machine’s default settings file and reboot
to make the changes take effect.
3.
Make sure that the following entry is present in the
$OMNIHOME/platform/
arch
/
locales/locales.dat
file:
locale = ja_JP PCK, japanese, sjis
where
ja_JP PCK
is the vendor locale,
japanese
is the Sybase language, and
sjis
is the Sybase character set.
