Hello,
as already explained by others on this list, this is a language/code page
issue.
You may want to read our Tivoli Field Guide titled :
Tivoli Storage Manager and Localization: Localization Considerations Using
the Linux and UNIX Backup-Archive Client
It is available here :
http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27012043

In particuplar, pay attention to Appendix F titled "Locale and the UNIX
Shell".
It offers some detailed examples which explains why the ANS4042E error is
logged
and how to solve it using the en_US locale.
