Translation Synchronization Patches.

TSP is a process to synchronize US language and other installed languages which is a very efficient process.

It is based on ad_.. tables like for example AD_FILE_VERSIONS
and those tables are updated when you apply a patch or when you run adadmin / maintain snapshot.

When you generate the file manisfest using adgennls.pl script,
this script compares the files versions (from the AD_.. tables) between the US  and the other installed languages
and generates the adgennls.txt file.

So this means the same TSP can only be applied if your 2 instances are exactly similar (clone)
In case you applied different patches then you need to generate a new file manifest.

The TSP will provide a patch containing all the NLS objects that are in a lower
version that their corresponding US object, so only the objects that really need a translation will be provided by the TSP.
