Enabling Unicode Support
Your operating system configuration can influence the behavior of characters supported by Oracle Fusion Middleware products.
On UNIX operating systems, Oracle highly recommends that you enable Unicode support by setting the LANG and LC_ALL environment variables to a locale with the UTF-8 character set. This enables the operating system to process any character in Unicode. Table 1-16 describes these environment variables.
Note:
Ensure that the required locales for the UTF-8 character set are installed on the host computer. This is a prerequisite for the Oracle Business Intelligence software.
Table 1-16 Language Environment Variables on UNIX Operating Systems
|
Variable |
Description |
|
LANG |
This environment variable sets the installation default locale. For example: setenv LANG en_US.UTF-8 |
|
LC_ALL |
This environment variable overrides the value of the LANG environment variable and the values of any other LC_* environment variables. For example: setenv LC_ALL en_US.UTF-8 |
Check your current locale settings, use the locale command on your system. Below is an example:
Copylocale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8
LC_TIME=en_US.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE=en_US.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=en_US.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES=
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=
Setting the Operating System Open File and Processes Limit
To change the Open File Limit:
- Log in as root and edit the following file:
/etc/security/limits.conf
- Add the following lines to the limits.conf file.
- Copy* soft nofile 40964. * hard nofile 655365. * soft nproc 20476. * hard nproc 16384
