All language locales were previously installed on the Sun Management Center server or console machine.
The es-inst command-line script is used to install an add-on product on the server or console machine at a later time, using the Sun Management Center 3.5 installation 1 of 2 CD.

The following error message is displayed:

All supported languages are installed.

Note –

This bug does not occur on agent-only machines.

Log in as superuser to the machine on which the Sun Management Center server and agent have been installed.
