Resolution:
This issue has been resolved with the release of SUMX/SY 6.4.0_v3, which includes the following updated language packs that align with packs which were previously available:
English, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese, Korean (sumx / sy 640_esEszhCnjaJaptBrkoKo.lpk)
English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese (sumx / sy 640_frFrdeDeitItesEsptBr.lpk)
English, French, German, Russian, Italian, Spanish (sumx / sy 640_frFrdeDeruRuitItesEs.lpk)
English, French, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean (sumx / sy 640_frFrruRuzhCnjaJakoKo.lpk)
When upgrading firmware to 6.4.0_v3 while using a language pack, please ensure that the order of the languages in the selected pack matches that which was previously installed on the NMC. If the NMC has been updated to the original 6.4.0 version (not the fixed v3) and the selected language has changed, then applying the 6.4.0_v3 revision will fix the issue. If for some reason the 6.4.0_v3 update cannot be applied, then it is possible to manually change the language through the web interface for any user accounts. It is also recommended to check the language setting for email recipients, trap receivers, and syslog if they are used. These can be modified either through the web interface. or using the config.ini file (instructions for downloading the config.ini file can be found in FA156117)
