Configuration Upload in International
Environments
This section describes how to exchange configuration data between
management servers running in different language environments.
Configuration Upload in ASCII Mode
Any download data contains language-specific information that has been
extracted from the environment of the source management server. The
following parts of the configuration are affected:
❏ node configuration
❏ logfile templates
❏ management server configuration
This could cause problems when uploading data into a language
environment where the character set of the source management server is
not supported. For example, you could receive incompatible data when
uploading configuration data into a management server running in
Shift JIS if the configuration data has been downloaded from a
management server running in ISO885915.
OVO’s solution to this problem is to upload configuration data in ASCII
mode. If you select ASCII mode for uploading data, the upload process
replaces all instances of a character set with the ASCII character set. In
the example above, the character set ISO885915 would be replaced with
the ASCII character set. Figure 8-4 on page 320 shows this process.
