Changing the Product Language After Installation

The following list provides some relevant information about changing the product language of CA IT Client Manager after installation:

There are alternative techniques for changing the product language after installation:
- Changing the language of already installed DSM components is supported for the components Explorer, scalability server, and agents. On the agent host, run the ccnfcmda command as follows:
```
ccnfcmda -cmd SetParameterValue -ps itrm/common/localization
-pn language -v lang
```
  The value of lang specifies the desired language. Possible values are enu (English (U.S.)), deu (German), fra (French), and jpn (Japanese); for agents additionally chs (Simplified Chinese), esn (Spanish), and kor (Korean).
  
  Note: For more detailed information about the ccnfcmda configuration agent command, type <command> /? at the command prompt.
- Create a query-based policy to run the ccnfcmda command as described above.
Changing the language for the manager is not possible after manager installation
When configuring the product language of CA IT Client Manager, make sure that the language package for the specified language has been installed because there is no check for availability. If no language package for the specified product language has been installed, CA IT Client Manager falls back to English (U.S.).
When the language is reconfigured, you must stop and restart CA IT Client Manager using caf stop and caf start, respectively, so that it can take over the new value.
