<div><p>View this topic to learn how to create a time zone.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>Using the time management function of iSeries™ Navigator, you can create a time
|
||
|
|
zone specific to your needs. You can create either a new time
|
||
|
|
zone or a new time zone based on an existing time zone. The method you choose
|
||
|
|
depends on the time zone properties that you want to use. If there is an existing
|
||
|
|
time zone with properties similar to the one you want to create, use the new
|
||
|
|
based on method.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>When the i5/OS™ is installed, the IBM-supplied time
|
||
|
|
zones are overwritten. All IBM-supplied time zone identifiers begin with the
|
||
|
|
character Q and the time zone names are retrieved from the QCPFMSGQ message
|
||
|
|
file. If you create a time zone (new or based on an existing time zone), it
|
||
|
|
is recommended that the time zone identifier does not begin with the character
|
||
|
|
Q. By doing this, all time zone identifiers that begin with the character
|
||
|
|
Q are reserved for IBM<sup>®</sup>.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>To create a time zone, complete the following
|
||
|
|
steps:</p>
