Locale Installation Overview

Follow these general guidelines to install localized Sun Cluster 2.2 7/00 Release. See the Sun Cluster 2.2 Software Installation Guide for detailed installation and configuration instructions.

1. Install the Solaris operating environment, using your Solaris documentation.

   Sun Cluster 2.2 requires the Solaris 2.6, Solaris 7, or Solaris 8 operating environment. Install the Solaris software and all required and recommended Solaris patches. Solaris patches are available from your service provider or from the patch web site, http://sunsolve.sun.com.

2. (Optional) Install the Sun Cluster 2.2 7/00 Release AnswerBooks onto an existing AnswerBook2 server or non-cluster node, using the instructions in "AnswerBooks".

3. (Optional) View or print the PostScript or derived HTML (DHTML) versions of the Sun Cluster 2.2 documentation from the Sun Cluster 2.2 CD.

4. Install the English version of Sun Cluster 2.2, using the scinstall(1M) script found on the Sun Cluster 2.2 CD.

   # cd Sun_Cluster_2_2/Sol_2.x/Tools # ./scinstall

5. Install the Sun Cluster 2.2 patches, which are included on the Sun Cluster 2.2 product CD.

   Also check with your service provider or the Sun patch web site, http://sunsolve.sun.com, for any additional patches.

   # cd Sun_Cluster_2_2/Sol_2.x/Patches # ./install_scpatches

6. Install the localized version of the Sun Cluster 2.2 software, using the pkgadd(1M) utility and the appropriate package name from the table below.

   # cd Sun_Cluster_2_2/Sol_2.x/Product # pkgadd -d . package_name

   The locale package names for Sun Cluster 2.2 7/00 are as follows:

   Package Name	Locale	Description
   SUNWfrscc	fr	French localized Sun Cluster client
   SUNWfrscs	fr	French localized Sun Cluster server
   SUNWjecmc	ja	Japanese localized Sun Cluster client
   SUNWjescc	ja	Japanese man pages for Sun Cluster client
   SUNWjescs	ja	Japanese localized Sun Cluster server
   SUNWjecms	ja	Japanese man pages for Sun Cluster server
   SUNWjemdm	ja	Japanese Solstice DiskSuite Mediator software
   SUNWkscc	ko	Korean localized Sun Cluster client
   SUNWkscs	ko	Korean localized Sun Cluster server

Setting the System Default Locale

You must set the system default locale correctly on all cluster nodes in order to see localized messages. Set the system default locale by editing the /etc/default/init files on all cluster nodes so that the LANG or LC_MESSAGES fields are set to the appropriate locale (fr, ko, or ja). For example, to see French messages, specify LANG=fr or LC_MESSAGES=fr. The system default locale settings must be identical on all nodes.

Dependencies on Packages for Localized Error Messages

Localized Solaris packages are required on all cluster nodes to enable localized messages. These packages are installed by default during installation of the localized Solaris operating environment. These packages are SUNWfros for French messages, SUNWjeuc for Japanese messages, and SUNWkleu for Korean messages.

Locale-Specific Known Problems

4299187 - The cluster console does not accept non-ascii characters, for example, Japanese characters or French (accented) characters. Work around the problem by inputting such characters through the individual terminal windows on each cluster node, instead of through the cluster console.

4277778 - The Help messages about the Cluster Control Panel (CCP) are displayed in English, regardless of the locale in which Sun Cluster is running. CCP Help messages are translated to Japanese, however, and can be accessed through a browser, with the following URL:
