ITO Language Support
Language Support on Managed Nodes
Character Sets for Internal Processing on
Managed Nodes
The character sets available on platforms supported by ITO can differ
from the character set used in the ITO database. Consequently, when a
message is generated on a managed node, it must often be converted
before it can be sent to the management server and stored in the
database.
ITO takes care of this conversion. If necessary, automatic character-set
conversions take place through ITO managed node processes before a
message is sent to the server.
The character set supported for managed nodes depends on the
environment. If you operate in an English environment, your database
character set is WE8ISO8859P1 (Oracle) and the following character sets
are supported for ITO managed nodes:

Environment

If you operate in a Japanese environment, your database character set is
Shift JIS, and the following character sets are supported for ITO
managed nodes:
