5.6.3 Ensure the Language pack installation is functional

To determine if the language pack installation is successful ensure you can login into the various languages listed on your Maximo login page. Carefully assess if all the language packs are installed as planned. If some of your languages are not installed carefully re-assess and implement those languages.
