Issuing commands from the administrative client
The administrative command-line client is a program that runs on a file server, workstation, or mainframe.
About this task
Ensure that your administrative client and your server are running in compatible languages. See LANGUAGE for language and locale options. If your client and server are using different languages, the messages that Tivoli® Storage Manager generates might not be understandable.
For example, assume that you update a node contact field with a value that contains national characters (update node myNode contact=NLcontact_info), and later query the node (query node myNode format=detailed). If the client is running in the same locale when you update as when you query, the NLcontact_info will display properly. If you update the node contact field when the client is running in one locale, and query the node when the client is running in a different locale, it is possible that the NLcontact_info will not display properly.
