The Tivoli Storage Manager client automatically detects the language of the system locale and displays Tivoli Storage Manager for that language. For example, a supported operating system displays Tivoli Storage Manager in French by default. If Tivoli Storage Manager cannot load the French message catalog, it will default to the American English language pack. For example, if the client is running on an unsupported locale/language combination, such as French/Canada or Spanish/Mexico, Tivoli Storage Manager defaults to American English.
You can use the LANG environment variable to specify the language for the AIX, AIX 5L, HP-UX, Linux, and Solaris clients. For all other UNIX clients, only American English is available.
Tivoli Storage Manager supports the following language
locales:
Languages | AIX and AIX 5L | HP-UX | Solaris | Linux X86 |
---|---|---|---|---|
American English | en_US | en_US | en_US | en_US |
Simplified Chinese | zh_CN | zh_CN.eucCN | zh_CN | zh_CN |
Traditional Chinese | zh_TW, Zh_TW.big5 | zh_TW.eucTW | zh_TW, Zh_TW.big5 | zh_TW.big5 |
Japanese | ja_JP, Ja_JP | ja_JP.eucJP | ja_JP | ja_JP |
Korean | ko_KR | ko_KR.eucKR | ko_KR | ko_KR |
French (Standard) | fr_FR |

German (Standard) | de_DE |

Italian (Standard) | it_IT |

Portuguese (Brazil) | pt_BR |

To set the LANG environment variable to Japanese, type the following:
export LANG=ja_JP
Note: To display the Tivoli Storage Manager help browser menus in the language of your current locale, insure that the NLSPATH environment variable in the /etc/profile file contains the following path:
NLSPATH=/usr/dt/lib/nls/msg/%L/%N.cat:$NLSPATH export NLSPATH
If the LANG environment variable is set to C, POSIX (limiting the valid characters to those with ASCII codes less than 128), or other values with limitations for valid characters, the backup-archive client skips files containing invalid characters with ASCII codes higher than 127.
If you are using a single-byte character set (SBCS) like English as your language environment, all file names are valid and backed up by the backup-archive client. Multi-byte characters are interpreted as a set of single bytes all containing valid characters. If you are using multi-byte character sets (MBCS) as your language environment, the backup-archive client backs up file names that consist of valid characters in the current environment.
For example, a file name consisting of Japanese characters may contain invalid multi-byte characters if the current language environment is a Chinese character set. Files containing invalid multi-byte characters are not backed up and are not shown by the graphical user interface. If such files are found during backup, the dsmerror.log will list the skipped files.
When using the backup-archive client scheduling mode to back up a whole system, it is strongly recommended to set the LANG environment variable to en_US (or some other SBCS language) to avoid skipped files.
