How locale settings are applied

How locale settings are applied

Locale settings are applied in a particular order.

When choosing the locale for text in the Command Line Console, Administrator Console, and User Console, the appliance uses the following priority:

1.
User: If the user locale is set, use it.
2.
Organization: If the user locale is not set, use the organization setting (available only if the Organization component is enabled on the appliance).
3.
Browser: If neither the user nor organization locales are set, use the browser setting.
4.
System (Command Line Console): If the user, organization, and browser locales are not set, use the System setting.
5.
Default: If none of the preceding options are set, use the default locale (English).

Configure locale settings for the Administrator Console and the Command Line Console

Configure locale settings for the Administrator Console and the Command Line Console

You can configure the locale setting for the Administrator Console at the System-level. This also controls the locale of the Command Line Console, which is accessed through the konfig user account.

Locale settings determine the formats used for date and time information displayed in the Administrator Console. All text in the interface is displayed in English regardless of locale settings. Locale settings also determine the date and time formats used in email sent from the Service Desk.

1.
Go to the appliance Control Panel:
◦

Configure locale settings for the User Console

Configure locale settings for the User Console

The appliance supports several locales. The Administrator Console, System Administration Console, and online help can be displayed in English, French, German, Japanese, Portuguese (Brazil), and Spanish.

In addition to these languages, you can translate the User Console into other non-supported locales, such as Afrikaans (South Africa), as needed. When you translate the User Console to a non-supported language, its help contents appear in English, while other elements of the appliance, such as the Administrator Console, System Administration Console, and the associated online help, are displayed in the selected language.

By default, the browser locale determines the language in which the User Console is displayed. When the User Console is translated to another languages and properly configured (as described below), any users whose browsers use that locale display the User Console in the translated language.

1.
Go to the appliance Control Panel:
◦
If the Organization component is not enabled on the appliance, log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin, then select Settings > Control Panel.
◦

3.
Export the text strings associated with the locale from which you want to translate to a Gettext portable object (PO) file, along with a portable object template (POT) for translation. For more information about Gettext PO files, see https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/PO-Files.html.
a.
On the User Console Localization Settings page, under Export Gettext PO (portable object) File, click Export Locale, and select the locale from which you want to translate. The list that appears includes all of the supported languages, as well as any languages to which you previously translated the User Console.

A POT (portable object template) file contains a template file, used to generate the empty PO file using the GetText utilities (optional).
4.
Translate the User Console text strings, as required, and create a PO file.
5.
