Specifying Languages to Support

  • Artículo

 

Applies To: Windows Server Update Services

The language configuration settings determine the languages in which the update files are downloaded. You can choose to download update files for all available languages or for specific languages.

If you know the languages of all software applications and operating systems that are deployed in your network, you can specify the specific languages in which to download updates. However, if you are not sure (users can install any localized version of the operating system or software applications), you should download updates for all languages.

Selecting all languages will download all the localized packages for a given update. For example, if an update is offered in 24 languages, all 24 packages are downloaded. This option can increase bandwidth and disk space usage. To tell WSUS to synchronize updates for all languages, set AllUpdateLanguagesEnabled to true. AllUpdateLanguagesEnabled must be set to true if HostBinariesOnMicrosoftUpdate is set to true.

To tell WSUS to synchronize updates for specific languages, set AllUpdateLanguagesEnabled to false and call SetEnabledUpdateLanguages to enable the specific languages. Note that WSUS supports a subset of the language codes that are defined by RFC1766. To determine the language codes that WSUS supports, call SupportedUpdateLanguages.

For an example that sets these properties, see Specifying Updates to Synchronize.

The language configuration settings are also used to determine in which languages the update metadata is synchronized to the WSUS server. However, most updates are bundled updates, in which case WSUS will synchronize the metadata for all languages that the bundle supports. (WSUS may download metadata for languages that are not selected.)
