Configuring a locale in Linux for flat file connections

On Linux, for synchronization or replication tasks that use a flat file connection, to support multibyte data you need to set the default locale to UTF-8.

1To display the current locale, in a shell command line, enter locale.

2 To set the default locale to UTF-8, see the following examples:

- For bash and related UNIX shells:

export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

- For csh and related UNIX shells:

setenv LC_ALL en_US.UTF-8
