For the VCS agent for Sybase to function with the desired locale, make sure that the Sybase installation has the correct localization files. For example, if the Sybase server requires 'LANG=en_US.UTF-8' environment variable, verify that the localization files corresponding to language 'en_US.UTF-8' are installed with Sybase.

Also, edit the file $VCS_HOME/bin/vcsenv to contain the following:

LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG

LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_CTYPE

LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_ALL

This change affects all the agents that are configured on the nodes.
