We use Zeke and have TZ=MST7MDT coded in the ENVIRON file. I agree with Charles, no need to change it for the time change. We do not cycle Zeke, IPL, or anything. At 2:00 AM MDT Sunday morning the clock will revert to 1:00 AM MST. Bill

CST6CDT says (simplifying the details here) that your winter offset is UTC-6 and your summer offset is UTC-5. Charles -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mark Pace Sent: Friday, November 04, 2016 9:22 AM To: [email protected] Subject: ASG Zeke and time change In Zeke there is an ENVIRON file that contains. * TZ: * Time zone. See your IBM Language Environment Customization * documentation for more information on how to set your time zone. *TZ=CST5CDT * * spring is 5; fall is 6 * TZ=CST5CDT This customer is in the Central Time Zone. So for the time change it needs to be updated to TZ=CST6CDT My question is – When can I update this file? Can I do it now and it will be picked up on the next IPL? Or does Zeke look at this file all the time and I would have to wait until Zeke is taken down before the IPL?
