been configured that references the zone, the summer commands must be deleted before the zone can
be reset to UTC.
Default zone utc - The time zone is set for Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
Parameters std-zone-name — The standard time zone name. The standard name must be a system-defined zone in
Table 17. For zone names in the table that have an implicit summer time setting, for example
MDT for Mountain Daylight Saving Time, the remaining start-date, end-date and offset
parameters need to be provided unless it is necessary to override the system defaults for the time
zone.
For system-defined time zones, a different offset cannot be specified. If a new time zone is
needed with a different offset, the user must create a new time zone. Note that some system-
defined time zones have implicit summer time settings which causes the switchover to summer
time to occur automatically; configuring the dst-zone parameter is not required.
A user-defined time zone name is case-sensitive and can be up to 5 characters in length.
Values A user-defined value can be up to 4 characters or one of the following values:
GMT, BST, IST, WET, WEST, CET, CEST, EET, EEST, MSK, MSD, AST, ADT,
EST, EDT, ET, CST, CDT, CT, MST, MDT, MT, PST, PDT, PT, HST, AKST,
AKDT, WAST, CAST, EAST
non-std-zone-name — The non-standard time zone name.
Values Up to 5 characters maximum.
hh [:mm] — The hours and minutes offset from UTC time, expressed as integers. Some time zones
do not have an offset that is an integral number of hours. In these instances, the minutes-offset
must be specified. For example, the time zone in Pirlanngimpi, Australia UTC + 9.5 hours.
Default hours: 0
minutes: 0
Values hours: -11 — 12
minutes: 0 — 59
