Localization

For example, if your client’s language is Latin, the Spanish language module is installed, and Spanish is specified as the Adaptive Server default language, the client receives messages in Spanish.

Localization

By default, the Adaptive Server and Backup Server configurations use the

English locale settings, which include:

Character set definition files for Western European character sets

Sort-order definition files for Western European character sets

U.S. English system message files

During the installation process or through reconfiguration, you can specify a different language, character set, and sort order.
