1. Introduction to uc-locale-it_IT-12.5.0.1-31.cop.sgn
The uc-locale-it_IT-12.5.0.1-31.cop.sgn is a critical localization package for Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) environments requiring Italian (Italy) language compliance in system management interfaces and logs. Designed under Cisco’s Global Language Standardization Framework, this COP file enables localized display of UCS Manager 12.5(0.1) dashboards, error messages, and CLI outputs, aligning with Italy’s regional IT operational regulations.
This release specifically addresses:
- Regional Formatting: Implements Euro currency symbols, ISO 8601 date/time formats (DD/MM/YYYY), and Italian keyboard layouts.
- Compatibility: Certified for use with UCS Manager 12.5(0.1) and later, supporting both B-Series blades and C-Series rack servers.
- Release Date: Officially published on Cisco’s Software Download Portal on March 15, 2025.
2. Key Features and Improvements
A. Linguistic Accuracy Enhancements
- Full CLI Translation: 98% of UCS Manager command-line outputs now display in Italian, including critical alerts like “Stato del server: Non riuscito” (Server Status: Failed).
- GUI Localization: Menu items and tooltips in UCS Manager HTML5 interface comply with Italy’s technical terminology standards (UNI 10586-2024).
B. Technical Optimizations
