vCenter Configuration Manager Agent support on non-english platforms (2008337)

Purpose

This article explains the depencies and limitations present when installing the VMware vCenter Configuration Manager agent on non-English (non-ENU) Windows machines, and when collecting data from those machines.

Resolution

When installing the VMware vCenter Configuration Manager (VCM) agent on, or collecting data from, non-English Windows machines, remember these points:

On machines where VCM administrators run Web consoles, you might need additional language packs to display the non-Western data that VCM collects from these machines.
Some non-English machines require non-English versions of Microsoft patches. The only such machines which VCM supports are Spanish, French, and Danish.
Compliance rules that refer to Services must use the internal names rather than the display names, as the display names might be localized.
