Try setting: TZ= IST2IDT export $TZ
in a Unix shell and see what happens. HTH, -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On Behalf Of Giliad Wilf Sent: Monday, April 23, 2018 3:42 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Where do I find a list of world timezones in z/OS USS notation? Hi All, I'm configuring a new system in Israel and wish to pick the correct timezone for our location, in terms of z/OS USS. Our system has been built abroad using CST6CDT, and shipped to us in the form of some 32 dumped 3390-9 volume images. Now I wonder whether or not will IST2IDT be accepted by z/OS USS if placed in '/etc/init.options' and '/etc/profile' files. Are there any additional locations to update, aside from CLOCKxx's TIMEZONE parameter, which I'm going to change from 'W.06.00.00' to 'E.02.00.00'? Our z/OS runs on top of z/VM and Linux zPDT app., which show both correct UTC value, but use a TZ that appears to be the equivalent of EST5EDT. I'm not going to meddle with zPDT or with z/VM. Only with z/OS. Any insight will be greatly appreciated. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ::DISCLAIMER:: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The contents of this e-mail and any attachment(s) are confidential and intended for the named recipient(s) only.
