Java 8 relocated timezone information to a file "usually" named tzdb.dat.
You should find that file in the .../lib directory also.

Anticipating the next question, if you'd like to update timezone
information between SDK service updates, use the IBM Time Zone Update
Utility for Java ("JTZU"):

https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/dst/jtzu.html

JTZU is for IBM runtimes and SDKs, including those on z/OS. If you need a
comparable tool for Oracle's JREs and JDKs on other platforms then look for
Oracle's "TZUpdater." These tools (in earlier versions) debuted well before
Java 8, so they've always been important. Arguably they're now even more
important.
