(UNIX) Configuring the Planning Locale for Use in Non-English Environments

  To configure the Planning locale for use in a non-English UNIX environment:

  1. In EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/deploymentScripts, edit setCustomParamsHyperionPlanning.sh to include these items:

    • An ESSLANG value

    • A LANG value

    • An LC_CTYPE

    ESSLANG, LANG and LC_CTYPE should be assigned the same locale.

    For example, for simplified Chinese:

    ESSLANG=SimplifiedChinese_China.MS936@Binary; export ESSLANG
    LANG=zh_CN.gb18030; export LANG
    LC_CTYPE=zh_CN.gb18030; export LC_CTYPE

    See the table at the end of this section for more languages.

  2. Ensure that the ESSLANG value that you set in setCustomParamsHyperionPlanning.sh matches the ESSLANG value set for Essbase Server (set with EPM System Configurator).
