<h1 class="topictitle1">Set the time zone before upgrading</h1>
|
||
<div><p>Use this method if you have a previous release of i5/OS™ installed
|
||
and are upgrading to i5/OS V5R3 or later. This is the preferred method,
|
||
if you have a previous release already installed, because your time zone will
|
||
be set correctly as soon as you upgrade.</p>
|
||
<div class="section"><p>If you are upgrading from a previous release of i5/OS to i5/OS V5R3
|
||
or later, it is recommended that you set up your time zone before you upgrade
|
||
to the new release. This ensures that your system time is set properly as
|
||
soon as the upgrade is complete. To set the time zone before upgrading, you
|
||
must have a supported release for the i5/OS software upgrade.</p>
|
||
<p>To define
|
||
the time zone object for the system before an i5/OS software upgrade, create a data area
|
||
named QWCTIMZON in the system (QSYS) library. When you perform an initial
|
||
program load (IPL), the server uses this object when attempting to determine
|
||
the default value for the time zone (QTIMZON) system value. For more information
|
||
about how the system determines the time zone to use when upgrading to a new
|
||
release of the i5/OS system,
|
||
see Initial time zone setting.</p>
|
||
<p>To create the data area for the time
|
||
zone, complete the following steps:</p>
