How to tell the language that SCOM installed as from registry

[catsky]

Hi, All

 

I has installed SCOM 2012 on my Server. How could I tell which language version of SCOM has been installed from registry? Thanks.

 

I look through the following reg path, can't find any language related key or values.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Operations Manager

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\System Center Operations Manager

I'm not sure there is a way to do this.

 

I did a quick search and couldn't find anything online about it. The only thing that I could might relate is the key you already looked at:

 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Operations Manager\3.0\Setup\ specifically the keys CurrentVersion, ServerVersion, and UIVersion references.

 

But, I haven't found anything to verify that these references relate to the language. I'm just thinking if there are different versions for different languages.

yes, indeed, SCOM has different version for different language. However, I hardly find the language tag or key in registry to indicated which version is installed.

 

Could anyone have further information? very appreciated.

Hey Catsky,

 

I did some more searching and I think I found a Registry Key that might help you.

 

I recently installed SCOM 2012 R2, and there is a registry key in the following location:

 

NOTE: The SID/GUID references may be different depending on your version/location installation.

 

SCOM Console Registry Key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products\6143C140EC7820B419E8F6CD592F143D\InstallProperties\

SCOM Server Registry Key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products\EB72729C21DB0414696A72B64A6FA01C\InstallProperties\

 

Look at the Language registry key. It will have a hexadecimal language code (I've attached 2 screenshots).

I know this is an old topic, but I was browsing around and thought I'd post an answer in case it helps future visitors...

 

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd346950.aspx this link will show all of the decimal values for the languages. So 1033 is English (United States).

 

 

Hope it helps someone.
