The itrezzoAgent Server has many customizable messages intended for users and administrators. The server can also support multiple (non-english) languages. These capabilities can be administered through the Language Packs container with in the itrezzoAgent Administrator console.

1.0 Technical Description

A hidden message inside the itrezzoAgent mailbox has an attachment with one or more language pack files. The contents are automatically loaded into memory. When the language pack is customized, the settings are retained in the mailbox. Therefore, all servers can share the language pack and the settings are automatically backed up when the Microsoft Exchange Information Store is backed up.

To handle upgrades, each time the itrezzoAgent Server starts up, it looks for a file in the default directory called IALangPack_English.xml. If that file has messages that are missing from the current language pack, those messages are added. No message is overwritten unless the pack is manually imported.

Because the language pack is saved as a message attachment, the itrezzoAgent Administrator does not flush until the individual updates is done and the application is closed. Procedures described below require that the itrezzoAgent Service is stopped, and the itrezzoAgent Administrator is closed to commit the changes.
