Installation guide

EMC NetWorker Release 8.1 SP1 Installation Guide 27
Software Requirements
◆ Enable the corresponding language locale on the Console server.
◆ Install the corresponding language pack included with the NetWorker software
package on the NetWorker client, server, storage node, and Console server.
The NetWorker software does not support locales that the operating system defines or
code sets that remap characters that have a special meaning for file systems, for example
De_DE.646. Depending on the file system, these special cancters might include the
forward slash (/), the backward slash (\), the colon (:), or the period(.).
When the appropriate non-English font is not available on the Console client, the Console
GUI renders the localized textual elements in English or the elements might appear as
illegible.
The CLI displays the data correctly when the current locale supports the characters and the
encoding. However, when the user and system locales do not match on a Windows host,
characters might display incorrectly.
The nsr_render_log command enables you to render English log file messages into the
locale of the user that runs nsr_render_log command. The
NetWorker Command Reference
Guide
or the UNIX man pages describes how to use the nsr_render_log program.
Message files that support localization include:
◆ daemon.raw file
◆ nsrcpd.raw file — the client push log
◆ gstd.raw file — the Console server log file
◆ networkr.raw file — the Windows recovery log file
The
NetWorker 8.1 Administration Guide on the EMC Online Support Site describes how to
view raw log files.
Windows requirements
This section provides general locale requirements, when using a Windows Console client
or the NetWorker User program in a multi-locale NetWorker datazone.
When non-UTF8 data from a UNIX host uses encoding that Windows does not support
natively, for example euc-jp, the UNIX host data will not appear correctly on the Windows
host.
The NetWorker User program displays the textual elements, dates, times, and numbers
based on the Regional and Language Options settings in Control Panel.
UNIX requirements
This section provides general locale requirements when using a UNIX Console client in a
multi-locale NetWorker datazone.
NetWorker does not support a non-ASCII installation directory. Create a symbolic link of
the /nsr folder to a non-ASCII directory.
