Tip: Configuring outbound plug-ins to send localized contents

[funksoul]

Hi,

In vROps 6.6.1, outbound plug-ins do not send localized contents by default.

But they will send localized contents if the vmware-vcops service is running in specific locale.

To configure a locale of vmware-vcops service In vROps VA, add $LANG environment variable to /etc/profile.d/vcops.sh.

    # echo "export LANG=[your locale name here]" >> /etc/profile.d/vcops.sh

    (*restart required)

I don't know if it's supported but worked like a champ for me.

Thank you.

So what locales work and what don't?

I used ko_KR.UTF-8 for Korean language.

Though I did not try other locales, UTF-8 encodings might work if one can see localized strings in vROps Web UI.
