More than 25 years ago we did this by user profile. We updated our application so that wherever a date or time was displayed we retrieved it through a called program based on an attribute in the user profile. We were only dealing with Eastern and Central U.S. times but back then Indiana did not do DST so it was annoying to them to see the wrong time half the year.

It worked for us but required application changes.

There is not a native method within IBM i that I am aware of.

Is it possible to have one iSeries partition serving multiple
timezones/countries?

Right now we have 3 partitions one running for Europe , One for ASIA and
one for USA. There is no need to run it like that the only issue is the
timezone. Effort is to have one consolidated partition.

1. user login from (Country) they should see that their timezone If they
update some data it should be updated using their timezone.
2. All jobs scheduled should run based on country specific timezone.
