How to Display CA Identity Manager in a Different Language

When an Environment supports multiple languages, users can select the language they want to view from a Choose Language field in the login screen and in the User Console. When a user chooses a different language, CA Identity Manager displays the login screen and User Console screens in the new language. The user does not need to log out of the Environment for changes to take effect.

The list of languages in the Choose Language field depends on the availability of localized files for the Environment. The language preference defined in the user’s browser determines the default language.

Note: To display the Choose Language field, you complete the following configuration steps in CA Identity Manager:

• Configure the Enable Language Switching field in the Management Console
• Add support for the language in the Environment by importing translated RoleDefinitions files, and installing online help files

  Note: If you are creating custom localized files instead of using the sample files, additional configuration steps are required.
