Configuring Western European language support on UNIX or Linux

This procedure describes how to configure Western European language support on UNIX or Linux.

Update the locale to the same value on every computer or UNIX account.

To configure Western European language support on UNIX or Linux:

1. From a command prompt, type the locale -a command.

   A list including the supported character set locale settings appears, as described in ISO Latin-1 character set locale settings for UNIX or Linux.

   NOTE: When configuring Control-M/Agent on operating systems not listed in the table of the above link, use the locale setting for the operating system that corresponds to the one selected for Control‑M/EM and Control-M/Server. For help, contact your UNIX administrator.

2. Set the values as described in UNIX environment variables for West European languages in the following files:
   • Control-M/Server - .cshrc or .profile file
   • All other components - .cshrc or .profile file
   • Control-M/EM - If the .cshrc or .profile file is not updated with environment variables, create a em_env_local.sh file under $HOME/ctm_em/etc/

   EXAMPLE:

   LC_ALL=

   LC_CTYPE=de_DE.ISO8859-1

   LANG=de_DE.ISO8859-1

   LC_COLLATE=C

   LC_MESSAGES=C

   NOTE: If necessary, add lines for these environment variables, listing them in the order, as described in UNIX environment variables for West European languages

3. Run the following command from the relevant component:
   • Control-M/Server: source ~/.ctmcshrc
   • Other components: source ~/.cshrc (there is no need to run this command for Control-M/EM)

   For more information about the locale parameter, see Agent configuration parameters.
