Non-ASCII Objects Display Random Characters if the N1 System Manager Is Running in a Non-UTF8 Locale (6231209)

Non-ASCII objects created using the N1 System Manager display random characters if you start N1 System Manager in any of the following ways:

• Restarting N1 System Manager in a non-UTF8 locale

• Rebooting the management server in a non-UTF8 locale

Workaround: Use either of the two following methods.

• Temporary solution: Set the LANG environment variable to the UTF8 locale on the management server and restart the N1 System Manager. For example:

  • Solaris management server:

    # export LANG en_US.UTF-8 # sccadm restart n1sm

  • Red Hat management server:

    # export LANG en_US.UTF-8 # /etc/init.d/n1sminit stop # /etc/init.d/n1sminit start

• Permanent solution:

  • Solaris based management server:

    Edit the file /etc/default/init and change the LANG value to en_US.UTF-8.

  • Red Hat based management server:

    Edit the file /etc/sysconfig/i18n and change the LANG value to en_US.UTF-8.
