Resolution

Using the Language Pack Utility:

To make a specific locale available for Symantec Data Loss Prevention, you add language packs through the Language Pack Utility.

You run the Language Pack Utility from the command line. Its executable, LanguagePackUtility.exe, resides in the  \Program Files\Symantec\DataLossPrevention\EnforceServer\<DLP_version>\Protect\bin directory (Linux: /opt/Symantec/DataLossPrevention/EnforceServer/<DLP_version>/Protect/bin)

To use the Language Pack Utility, you must have Read, Write, and Execute permissions on all of the \Program Files\Symantec\DataLossPrevention\EnforceServer\<DLP_version> for Windows and /opt/Symantec/DataLossPrevention/EnforceServer/<DLP_version> for Linux folders and sub-folders.

To display help for the utility, such as the list of valid options and their flags, run LanguagePackUtility without any flags.

Note: Running the Language Pack Utility causes the Manager and IncidentPersister services to stop for as long as 20 seconds. Any users who are logged on to the Enforce Server administration console will be logged out automatically. When finished making its updates, the utility restarts the services automatically, and users can log back on to the administration console.

 

To add a language pack (Windows)
1.  Advise other users that anyone currently using the Enforce Server administration
     console must save their work and log off.

2   Run the Language Pack Utility with the -a flag followed by the name of the Zip file for that language pack. Enter: LanguagePackUtility -a filename where filename is the

     fully qualified path and name of the language pack ZIP file.

     For example, if the Japanese language pack ZIP file is stored in ac:\temp, add it by entering:

     LanguagePackUtility -a C:\temp\Symantec_DLP_16.0_Japanese.zip

     To add multiple language packs during the same session, specify multiple file names, separated by spaces, for example:
     LanguagePackUtility -a C:\temp\Symantec_DLP_16.0_Japanese.zip
     Symantec_DLP_16.0_French.zip

3   Log on to the Enforce Server administration console and confirm that the new
     language option is available on the Edit General Settings screen.

     To do this, go to System > Settings > General > Configure > Edit General Settings.

 

To add a language pack (Linux)

1   Advise other users that anyone currently using the Enforce Server administration console must save their work and log off.

2   Open a terminal session to the Enforce Server host and switch to the DLP_system_account by running the following command:

     su - DLP_system_account

3   Run the following command:

     DLP_home/Protect/bin/LanguagePackUtility -a

4   Log on to the Enforce Server administration console and confirm that the new language option is available on the Edit General Settings screen.

     To do this, go to System > Settings > General > Configure > Edit General Settings.
