<h1 class="topictitle1">Offset from UTC was incorrectly set during the installation of the i5/OS operating
system</h1>
<div><p></p>
<div class="section"><p><strong>Problem</strong></p>
<p>If the offset from UTC (QUTCOFFSET) system
value was not set correctly during the installation, the initial time zone
value for your system might not be correct. If you set the time zone before
installation of i5/OS™,
the offset from UTC is set according to the time zone you specified. If you
set the time zone during an IPL, the offset from UTC is set according to the
time zone you specified during the IPL. Otherwise, the offset from UTC is
determined by the initial time zone value steps.</p>
<p>This troubleshooting
topic assumes that you did not set the time zone (QTIMZON) system value before
installation or during an IPL.</p>
<p>The offset might be incorrect if any
of the following conditions exist:</p>
<ul><li>The offset from UTC (QUTCOFFSET) system value was set to 00:00 (HH:MM)
before installation and it is not the actual offset.</li>
<li>The system was observing daylight saving time during the installation.
Therefore, the system chose a time zone description based on an incorrect
offset.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Recovery steps</strong></p>
<p>The offset from coordinated universal
time (QUTCOFFSET) system value is derived from the time zone (QTIMZON) system
value. Therefore, if the time zone is not correct, the offset will not be
correct either. After the time zone system value is set correctly, the offset
from UTC will be correct.</p>
<p>To troubleshoot this situation, complete the
following steps:</p>

<ol><li><span>Verify the time zone properties.</span></li>
<li><span>Verify the time system values.</span></li>
