Hi,
Recently I installed UDB8.2 on a Chinese version of WindowsXP. As
expected, every interfaces(ie Control Center, CLP, etc...) and system
messages were all in Chinese.
It wasn't a problem until I tried to migrate Perl scripts that I have
developed previously on UNIX systems. For instance, the same script
used on the UNIX for analyzing the db2snapshot information was, of
course, completely unusable on the Chinese Windows system.
Since, I am a lazy DBA and didn't want to rewrite all my scripts, I
deleted everything under the ..\SQLLIB\msg\, except for "en_US"
directory. Viola, it looks like DB2 has defaulted to use the "en_US"
and now everything is in English and all my scripts works.
Anyway, my question is, what consequence will I suffer for this action?
T.C.
