IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2
Localize the event message attribute
Edit the KMS_OMTEC_GLOBALIZATION_LOC variable on the hub monitoring server to enable globalization of the EIF event msg attribute slot that is mapped to the OMNIbus Summary attribute by the OMNIbus EIF probe rules.
By default, this variable is set to United States English and the msg attribute slot contains United States English messages. Take these steps to edit the variable to enable any language packs that are installed in your hub monitoring server environment:
- On the computer where the hub Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server is installed, open the KBBENV file:
- Start Manage Tivoli Monitoring Services, right-click Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server and click Advanced → Edit ENV file.
- In a text editor, open the <install_dir>/config/ <tems_name>_ms_<address>.cfg file, where <install_dir> is the directory where IBM Tivoli Monitoring is installed, <tems_name> is the value of the hub monitoring server supplied during the monitoring server configuration, and <address> is the IP address or fully qualified name of the hub monitoring server computer.
- Locate (or add) the KMS_OMTEC_GLOBALIZATION_LOC environment variable and enter the desired language and country code in the format KMS_OMTEC_GLOBALIZATION_LOC=xx_XX, where
- xx is the language.
- XX is the country code: de_DE, en_US, en_GB, es_ES, fr_FR, it_IT, ja_JP, ko_KR, pt_BR, zh_CN, or zh_TW.
For example, KMS_OMTEC_GLOBALIZATION_LOC=pt_BR (for Brazilian Portuguese) or KMS_OMTEC_GLOBALIZATION_LOC=zh_CN (for Simplified Chinese).
- Save and close the monitoring server environment file.
- Restart the hub monitoring server.
