Specifying the Locale for Your UNIX Operating System

This task is part of Planning Your Siebel Deployment.

To successfully run Siebel CRM on UNIX, you must configure the appropriate locales on your operating system for the language that you will run the applications in. In some cases, you might have to install additional content on your system in order to support the locale.

For LANG or LC_ALL settings on different UNIX operating systems for supported languages or locales, see the information that follows.

Note: The setting of the LANG environment variable does not affect database connections for Application Object Manager components for Siebel CRM. However, it does affect database connections used by other Siebel components.
