Hopefully, someone else will either confirm or correct me, but it is (was) my understanding that the TZ environment variable *ONLY* impacts C/C++ application code. It does *NOT* impact the LE callable services for obtaining (or impacted by) the timezone. I *know* that it doesn't impact the COBOL "current-date" intrinsic function information for timezones.
If the OP, only wanted to "impact" C/C++ programs, then this should be fine, but if they actually want to use LE services, I don't think this will work.
