If you order your Workstation with a specific language configured
at the factory, the system will "wake up" in that
language the first time you turn it on. If you later decide to change
the language, you will have to make sure the proper locales are
loaded on your system and, if not, load them from the Core OS media.
All available languages are included on the Core OS media. See “Loading Locales from the Core OS Media”.
Language Selection on Pre-loaded Systems |
 |
On Workstation systems that are shipped from the factory with
all languages installed, the system will first "wake up" in
English, then you must choose which language you want to use. You
can customize the user interface for many different languages and
for several user situations. Various elements such as screens, default
languages, fonts, input (keyboard) methods and icons can also be
changed. In addition, the menus, online help and error messages
are available in multiple languages.
For complete instructions on how to choose your language on
these systems, see the section “Managing the
LANG
Environment Variable”.
