Extended Character set in UNIX (2.7.x)

Hi,

We have a requirement to support extended Character set such as umlaut (ö). We have already created database using the UTF-8 character set. From Web Intelligence,

a) What do we have to change with relevance to Oracle Client ?
b) Changing the LANG setting to (en_US.UTF-8) in UNIX, will it affect the existing applications which uses en_US ?

We currently have the following setup in our environment

Web Intelligence 2.7.3
Business Objects 5.1.7
iPlanet 6.x
Sun Solaris 2.8

Please let me know ASAP.

Thanks
K V Dhar

I’m referring to Oracle on hp-ux: os account used to connect to oracle should have some variables set according to oracle client setting.
