AS/400 timezone

  • Subject: AS/400 timezone
  • From: "Clapham, Paul" <pclapham@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
  • Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2001 11:50:39 -0700
 
Maybe this is a FAQ, but what do I need to do to inform Java programs on my
AS/400s that the current time is in Pacific Standard/Daylight Time and not
in GMT?  When I get a Date object, the value I get from it is something like
18:42 GMT instead of 11:42 PDT.  Setting up a system property via
-Duser.timezone=PST works, but only as long as all my AS/400s are actually
in the same time zone.  Is there a setting somewhere I can make on each
machine?  System value QUTCOFFSET = -0700 doesn't seem to make any
difference.
