Changing the locale setting using the CLI

You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to specify the locale for a system. The language that you select as your locale setting is used to display command results and error messages in the CLI.

The following locales are available:
  • 0 US English (default)
  • 3 Japanese
Issue the setlocale CLI command with the ID for the locale.
For example, issue the following CLI command to change the locale setting from US English to Japanese:

setlocale -locale 3

where 3 is the ID for the Japanese locale setting.
