2.4.2 Environment variable settings (UNIX only)

UNIX users must set the language code used by JP1/IM - EG for NNMi. Configure the language code setting for both the environment variables file and common definitions.

Note the following points about the environment variables settings.

When LC_ALL is not specified, the settings of LC_MESSAGES, LANG, and LC_CTYPE^# must be the same.
When LC_ALL and LC_MESSAGES are not specified, the settings of LANG and LC_CTYPE^#must be the same.

#

The settings of LC_CTYPE are optional.

Each setting must maintain uniformity within the local host. For details about the procedure to use to configure settings, see below.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Setting the language encoding in the environment variable file
(2) Setting the language encoding in the common definitions

(1) Setting the language encoding in the environment variable file

Using a text editor such as vi, open the /etc/opt/jp1eg4nnmi/conf/jegn_env.conf file and, following LANG= on the first line, set the appropriate value for the LANG environment variable based on the following table.

Table 2‒5: Values that can be specified for LANG in the jegn_env.conf file
OS			Language type in use	Value of LANG environment variable
Type	Language type	Encoding	Language type in use	Value of LANG environment variable
Linux	Japanese	UTF-8^#1	Japanese	`ja_JP.UTF-8` or `ja_JP.utf8`
	Japanese	SJIS^#2	Japanese	`ja_JP.SJIS` or `ja_JP.sjis`
	English	UTF-8^#1	English	`en_US.UTF-8` or `en_US.utf8`
	English	C	English	`C`

#1

In UTF-8 encoding, two character codes are used to represent each of the following symbols:

Yen sign (\): 0x5C or 0xC2A5

Tilde (~): 0x7E or 0xE280BE

JP1/IM - EG for NNMi uses character codes 0x5C and 0x7E for these symbols.

#2

Applicable to SUSE Linux only.

Environment variables file settings will be applied the next time you start up JP1/IM - EG for NNMi.
