If you had like me, the experience to work for multinacional companies and have several customers in different countries, you could have the need to support systems on foreign languages.
Recently I had to support a vSphere environment in Germany, and I got confused with the huge names on Web Cli. Here's how you workaround the language issue:
Append the localization parameter to the URL used for accessing the web client:
Note: Languages supported are English, German, French, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese.
Append the localization parameter to the URL used for accessing the web client:
Note: Languages supported are English, German, French, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese.
- The default URL for the vSphere Web Client is:
https://client-hostname:9443/vsphere-client - To specify a language, append:
- English:
/?locale=en_US - German:
/?locale=de_DE - French:
/?locale=fr_FR - Japanese:
/?locale=ja_JP - Korean:
/?locale=ko_KR - Chinese:
/?locale=zh_CN
- English:
- For example, to display the vSphere Web Client in French, use:
https://client-hostname:9443/vsphere-client/?locale=fr_FR
