6.7.1 Files that specify LANG and TZ

When setting the language environment, set LANG and TZ in the file shown below.

Definition file of the operating system
This file affects the messages that are output when JP1/Software Distribution Client starts automatically at the system startup. For details about the automatic startup of JP1/Software Distribution Client, see 6.9 Setting the system files.
If you specify WatchTimeofOrders in the settings file of the client services and execute a job, the LANG and TZ settings in the definition file of the operating system take effect. If a job is executed by the startup request from a higher-level managing server or a relay system, the LANG and TZ settings in the operating-environment settings file take effect.
The file to be defined differs depending on the operating system. The definition file for each operating system is shown below:
  • For HP-UX
    /etc/rc.config.d/any-file-name
  • For Solaris
    /etc/default/init
  • For AIX
    /etc/environment
The definition file may also differ depending on the version of the operating system. Check the applicable file in the applicable manual of your operating system.
When you define the environment variables that are required to execute JP1/Software Distribution Client except LANG and TZ in the definition file of the operating system, you can pass those environment variables to the external program pre-installation processing and the external program post-installation processing.

.profile under the user home directory
This file affects the messages that are output when the logged-on user executes a command.
You can check whether a relay system has a distribution job for the local client workstation by setting WatchTimeofOrders in the settings file. To do so, you specify the -a option in the rdsrf command and execute the command. When you check the relay system in this way, this file also affects the messages that are output when the distribution job is executed.

Operating-environment settings file
This file affects the messages that are output when a job is executed by the startup request issued from an upper-level managing server or a relay system.
For the contents of the operating-environment settings file, see 6.8 Configuring the operating-environment settings file.
