Manage your profile and set a language preference

While the Application Administrator has the responsibility of setting up login access, you can update other aspects of your profile.

To update your profile

  1. Click User Account menu and select My Profile.
  2. Modify any of the following fields:
    • Login - This field is required.

    • Email - This field is required.

    • First name - This field is required.

    • Last name - This field is required.

    • Work phone

    • Cell phone

  3. Review the read-only fields:
    • Domain name - Displays the domain name associated with the user account.

    • Home group - Displays the home group for the user account.

  4. Select your preferences for the UI and reports:
    • Locale - In general, this field defines the language for the display date.

      If language support is available for a Locale, select your language preference. Selecting the Locale switches the Portal to display in that language after logging out and logging in again. Help is also displayed in the selected language.

      If the selected locale is not supported, English is displayed in the UI, but other locale settings are honored, for example the date format. Language of locale controls user language irrespective of region. Restore Defaults returns the UI to the initial locale. If browser settings do not specify a region, the default is en_US.

    • Date/Time - Select from:

      • Short - for example: 6/12/13 9:57 AM

      • Medium - for example: Jun 12, 2013 10:01:01 AM

    • Number format - Defines the decimal/comma placement for numbers.

    • Capacity metrics calculation - When 1024 is used for calculations, it refers to binary multiples: kibibyte (KiB), mebibyte (MiB), gibibyte (GiB), tebibyte (TiB), and pebibyte (PiB). When 1000 is used for calculations, it refers to decimal multiples: kilobyte (KB), megabyte (MB), gigabyte (GB), terabyte (TB), and petabyte (PB). By default, the units for values in reports are displayed as binary multiples. This default setting can be changed by modifying a user's profile.

    • Capacity metrics display - Select the label to represent the unit of measure. This label is displayed in reports.

    • Export duration column as hh:mm:ss - This check box is not visible by default. An administrator can configure portal.enableDurationColumnExportOption=true parameter in portal.properties file ( /opt/aptare/portalconf) and restart the tomcat-portal services. Once available, select this option to export the reports in Excel format. The Duration column in the report is exported in the selected format.

    Note:

    You can always click Restore to Defaults if required.
