21.7.1 Override the browser locale setting

You can use the following server.properties file to force a specified locale value for all NNMi clients regardless of their browsers' locale value:

• Windows: %NnmDataDir%nmsas\NNM\server.properties

• Linux: $NnmDataDir/nmsas/NNM/server.properties

When this value is set in the server.properties file, a browser's locale value is ignored.

To override browser locale settings:

1. Open the server.properties file.

   • Windows: %NnmDataDir%nmsas\NNM\server.properties

   • Linux: $NnmDataDir/nmsas/NNM/server.properties

   In the case of NNMi in an HA configuration, please see "19.5.1 Data on the NNMi shared disk".

2. Navigate to nmsas.server.forceClientLocale.

3. Set nmsas.server.forceClientLocale to either of the following:

   • nmsas.server.forceClientLocale = two-letter-ISO-language-code

   For example, enter the following to use only the ISO language code to set the locale to English:

   Example:

   nmsas.server.forceClientLocale = en

   • nmsas.server.forceClientLocale = two-letter-ISO-language-code_two-letter-ISO-country-code

   For example, enter the following to use the ISO language and country codes to set the locale to English:

   Example:

   nmsas.server.forceClientLocale = en_US

4. Restart the NNMi ovjboss service by running the following commands on the NNMi management server:

   ovstop ovjboss
   ovstart

Changes to the server.properties file are read only at the time of ovjboss startup.

For details, see the comments in the server.properties file.
