Description

Keyboard

Select the keyboard layout type that you want to be the system default. For example, in the United States you would probably select us.

Select a type of mouse that you want to use with the machine. (This setting is not available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.)

Time zone

Do either of the following:

  • Select a time zone from the drop-down list.
  • Check Use Custom TimeZone and type a time zone in the text box.

Important: TrueSight Server Automation does not support the TZ environment variable to set time zone. Functioning of TrueSight Server Automation might be impacted by this variable.

Locale

Select a language option from the drop-down list. For example, in the United States, select English (USA).

Key Setup (Ubuntu, versions 12 or 14)

For Installation Number, do one of the following:

  • Enter the 16-character alpha-numeric key that can be used during the installation process.
  • Click Select Property g_V95_ParameterizeIcon.GIFto display a drop-down menu of available properties. Select the property that contains the installation number.
  • Leave the Installation Number field blank. If you do not enter an installation number (subscription number), the provisioning process installs the core operating system without the packages that require the subscription number. You can install these packages separately when you get the number.

Proceed to the OS components - Ubuntu Linux tab.
