<p><span class="uicontrol">Time zone</span>, also known as <span class="uicontrol">QTIMZON</span>,
is a member of the date and time category of i5/OS™ system values. You can use this system
value to specify a time zone to be used on the system. To learn more, keep
reading.</p>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">What can I do with this system value?</h4><p>You can specify
the time zone to be used on the system. You can select an IBM-supplied time
zone or create your own. The time zone specifies the following time zone information:</p>
<ul><li>Offset from UTC</li>
<li>Standard Time names</li>
<li>Daylight Saving Time names</li>
<li>Daylight Saving Time start</li>
<li>Daylight Saving Time end</li>
</ul>
<p>If you cannot work with a time zone or change the time zone system
value, see the troubleshooting topic in Time management, I cannot edit my
time zone, to learn about the authority needed to work with a time zone.</p>
<p>You
can access the time zone system value from two locations in iSeries Navigator.
To view the current time zone expand <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol"></span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Configuration and Service</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">System Values</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Date and Time</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Time</span></span>.
To work with the time zones, expand <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Configuration
and Service</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Time Management</span> &gt; <span class="uicontrol">Time
Zones</span></span>.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Where can I get more information about this system value?</h4><p>To
learn more, go to the date and time system values overview topic. If you are
looking for a specific system value or category of system values, try using
the i5/OS system
value finder.</p>
<p>In addition, go to Time management to learn how to use
the Time Management function of iSeries Navigator to work with this system
value. The Time Management function allows you to identify a time zone for
the system to use. You can also specify to use a time maintenance application
to keep the system time synchronized with an external time source. </p>
