<h1 class="topictitle1">Set up i5/OS with
a national language version</h1>
<div><p>This topic describes the steps you need to take to properly install
and configure a national language version on i5/OS™, with topics ranging from selecting
and installing hardware, installing software, and configuring your environment
to run in a globalized setting. </p>
<p>You can use this information as you install your own
servers, and you can apply the principles when you develop applications for
customers who are installing their own national language version on i5/OS.</p>
<p>The feature code identified when you order an i5/OS operating
system is the language of your textual data and is called the primary language
of the system. Any other language versions that you have ordered are called
secondary languages. For secondary languages, the national language version
consists of only the textual data for all licensed programs ordered. The program
code is not contained in the secondary language version.</p>
<p>The primary language is the language in which the system is serviced and
from which all language-dependent or cultural-dependent system values are
initialized. In addition, other system objects and functions assume attributes
based on the primary language. For example, messages appearing in the history
log always appear in the primary language.</p>

<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbagshowlangdisplayed.htm">How a language is displayed for i5/OS functions</a></strong><br />
If you want information presented in a language other than the primary language of the server, you must first have a secondary language loaded. When a secondary language is loaded, you can display information in that language in any of three ways.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbagsinstallprep.htm">Installation preparation and national languages</a></strong><br />
IBM periodically creates program temporary fixes (PTF)

When planning to install a multilingual system, start by completing the Globalization planning checklist for globalization and multilingual support. The checklist consists of two parts, which should be completed sequentially.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbagsorderequipsoftware.htm">Order equipment and software</a></strong><br />
To properly support a language or multiple languages on a single system, the appropriate hardware and software must be ordered and configured. These topics describe some considerations you should take into account when ordering your hardware and software.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbagshardwareinstallandnls.htm">Hardware installation and national languages</a></strong><br />
When installing or changing a device on your system, you must make sure that the device is configured correctly to reflect the keyboard ID that matches the character set and code page of the job CCSID.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbagssoftwareinstallandnls.htm">Software installation and national languages</a></strong><br />
If your system will be communicating with systems using different languages, use care when specifying configuration names that will be exchanged with the remote system.</li>
