<h1 class="topictitle1">Configure secondary languages</h1>
<div><p>A secondary language consists of textual data for all licensed
programs supported for a national language version.</p>
<p>When you install a secondary language, the textual data for licensed programs
installed on your system is copied into the secondary language library. See
the chapter called "Installing a Secondary Language" in the Software Installation
PDF for instructions on installing secondary languages.</p>
<p>The program code is not included in the secondary language version.</p>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Secondary language environments</h4><p>Some
multilingual environments have more than one national language version installed.
To have a single iSeries™ server
support multiple languages, you must have the associated hardware installed.
You must also have sufficient disk storage space available to contain all
of the system and application textual data for the secondary languages. The
amount of disk storage space that is required varies by language and application,
but it is typically somewhere in the range of 50 to 300 MB.</p>
<p>The
languages currently supported on i5/OS™ as either primary or secondary languages
can be found in National Language Version (NLV) feature codes. Listed are
the national language versions, their feature codes, and the program libraries
from which they are available.</p>
<p>Each of the national language versions
available from the program library (primary or secondary) include cultural-
and language-dependent system values for that particular language. Date format,
date and time separators, code page and character set, and keyboard types
are examples. The system values are initially set to the cultural values of
the primary language. By setting up a subsystem, however, you can ensure that
the cultural values for the secondary languages are set properly for users
of the secondary languages.</p>
<p>Applications can use language values that
are available in message CPX8416, in file QCPFMSG, accessed using the library
list. Message CPX8416 gives the correct values for the primary or secondary
language, depending on the library list.</p>
<p>Except for logical partitioning
(LPAR), when you use a multilingual environment, the primary language version
and any secondary languages must be at the same release level. You must also
order and install the correct devices (workstation controllers, display stations,
and printers) to support your languages.</p>
