Host component NLS
For CICS BAC host mainframe components, you specify the language you want
use as follows:
- For the communication server, specify the LANGUAGE parameter as described
under Communication server runtime parameters
- For the batch request utility, specify the LANGUAGE parameter as described
under CICS BAC batch request utility runtime parameters.
- For CICS system console and job log messages, the language used is the
language in effect for the CICS BAC region startup processor transaction at
the time the CICS component starts.
- If you start the CICS component during CICS initialization through a CICS
PLTPI entry, CICS BAC uses the default language as specified by the CICS NATLANG
system initialization parameter.
- If you start the CICS component from a terminal using the KBKM transaction,
the language used is the language in effect for the user signed on to the
terminal at the time you issue the START command. If the terminal does not
have a signed-on user, CICS BAC uses the default language for the region.
-
For CICS BAC KBKM transaction maps, CICS BAC uses the language in effect
for the user signed on to the terminal when the transaction is issued. If
there is no user signed on at the terminal, CICS BAC uses the default language
for the CICS region.
- For audit log messages, CICS BAC writes all audit log messages in US English,
regardless of the language in effect for the various components at the time
the messages are written.
