Table 7-3: Partition options screen fields
Parameter
Custom Time Zone
Specification
Description
Allows a partition to be set to run in a different
time zone than the rest of the system.Leave this
field blank if the system's time zone setting is
appropriate for the partition. If specified, the cus-
tom timezone setting should be specified in one of
two formats depending on whether or not the time
zone uses daylight savings time.
Time zones without Daylight Savings Time:
STD offset
The STD string specifies the name of the time
zone and must be three or more alphabetic charac-
ters. The offset string immediately follows STD
and specifies the time value to be added to the
local time to get Coordinated Universal Time
(UTC). The offset is positive if the local time zone
is west of the Prime Meridian and negative if it is
east. The hour must be between 0 and 24, and the
minutes and seconds 0 and 59.
Time zones with Daylight Savings Time:
STD offset DST [offset][,start[/time],end[/time]]
There are no spaces in the specification. The initial
STD and offset specify the standard time zone, as
described above. The DST string and offset spec-
ify the name and offset for the corresponding day-
light savings time zone. If the offset is omitted, it
defaults to one hour ahead of standard time.
The start field specifies when daylight savings
time goes into effect and the end field specifies
when the change is made back to standard time.
These fields may have the following formats:
Jn This specifies the Julian day with n between 1
and 365. February 29 is never counted even in leap
years.
n This specifies the Julian day with n between 1
and 365. February 29 is counted in leap years.
Mm.w.d This specifies day d (0 <= d <= 6) of
month m (1 <= m <=
week w (1 <= w <= 5) of
12). Week 1 is the first week in which day d
occurs and week 5 is the last week in which day d
occurs.
Day 0 is a Sunday.
The time fields specify when, in the local time cur-
rently in effect, the change to the other time
occurs. If omitted, the default is 02:00:00.
