Limitations for Installing Additional Languages

This topic is part of Installing and Deploying Siebel CRM with Multiple Languages.

Although it is strongly recommended to install all of the languages that you might require (whether or not you initially deploy them all), you can also add languages to an existing installation. However, several limitations apply.

Note: If you plan to perform a migration installation of Siebel CRM, and you also want to add languages to your existing deployment, then you might be able to install the languages before you install the software. For more information, see About Language Deployment and Migration Installations.

Limitations for installing additional languages are as follows:

You can install additional languages for existing installations by using the installers of the same version only. For example, you can install the software as a new installation or as a migration installation, then later use the same installers to add languages at the new version level.
You can add languages by using either GUI or silent mode installation operations.
You cannot generate response files for an operation to add languages. You must use an edited copy of one of the response files that are provided for Siebel Enterprise Server, Siebel Application Interface, Siebel Web Client, or Siebel Tools. For the location of these response files, see Installing and Deploying Additional Languages.
You cannot add languages as part of performing a migration installation. However, you can add languages after the migration installation.
