TZ environment variable in HP-UX stores the timezone.

Display TimeZone:
The command echo $TZ
IST-5:30

Hi,

Ignore my previous post...

it is..

#cat /etc/TIMEZONE

If you want to change it ,you can do it using the command,

#set_parms timezone

Hi,
I guess zdump is also available in HPUX.

echo ${TZ}

will give that.

Timezone configuration is done through /etc/TIMEZONE file.

To adjust timezone use /usr/lib/tztab file.
