We have a SEPM (soon to be upgraded to RU5) server here in the states with clients locally as well in Quebec, Canada.  They've asked if it was possible to provide a french version of the SEP client.  Is this supported or even possible? Thanks

Thanks for the reply. So...

Thanks for the reply. So... do I have to download the French version of SEPM, extract the client packages and import them into our English SEPM server? Is that how to go about this?

Unilingual support for

Unilingual support for Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager
-----------------------------------------------------------
The Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager server supports a unilingual user interface. This means that a specific language operating system can only install and run that same language on the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager Console. The end user must configure the user locale to be the same as the operating system language when running the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager Console.

- A specific language Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager server only supports the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager Console that is in English language or in the same specific language as the server.

- The Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager server and the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager Console must both be configured to use a user locale that is the same as the operating system language.

Correct, the Manager and

Correct, the Manager and console would be English only and will stay that way. However, I have managed machines in Quebec, Canada. The local IT presence asked if we could provide a French version of the client. My question was if (and how) the Manager could deploy/configure/monitor clients of different languages.
