For USS stuff, look in /etc/profile. There might be a TZ varable being set 
there.

Well, something did not work as I expected.
(My original post: 
https://listserv.ua.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind1810&L=IBM-MAIN&O=D&P=420113 )

The command...
$TA STTZ,T=98.00,'$VS,''SET TIMEZONE=E.02.00'''
...issued on Wed. Oct. 24th did switch local time back from IDT (UTC+3) to IST 
(UTC+2) this morning at 2AM (local time switched back to 1AM), and I've 
corrected TIMEZONE statement at CLOCK00 to read "E.02.00.00" rather than 
"E.03.00.00", but USS still thinks we're on IDT.

Here are some USS commands I've issued this morning (I did not change anything 
on USS parameters since May):

IBMUSER:/u/ibmuser: >env
MAIL=/usr/mail/IBMUSER
_BPX_TERMPATH=OMVS
PATH=/Z22D/opt/SP/bin:/Z22D/opt/GIT/bin:/bin:.
SHELL=/bin/sh
PS1=$LOGNAME:$PWD: >
COLUMNS=134
_=/bin/env
LOGNAME=IBMUSER
STEPLIB=none
LANG=C
LIBPATH=/lib:/usr/lib:.
TERM=dumb
HOME=/u/ibmuser
LINES=62
TZ=IST-2IDT
MANPATH=/usr/man/%L
NLSPATH=/usr/lib/nls/msg/%L/%N:/usr/lib/nls/msg/%L/%N.cat
TR_Options=noResumableTrapHandler
IBMUSER:/u/ibmuser: >date
Sun Oct 28 10:56:09 IDT 2018
IBMUSER:/u/ibmuser: >date -u
Sun Oct 28 07:56:18 GMT 2018
IBMUSER:/u/ibmuser: >

=====End of Display =====

UTC is correct, and one can see 'TZ=IST-2IDT', and everything on z/OS is 
absolutely OK, except for USS.
USS still thinks we're three hours East.

Is IPL required anyway (which I don't believe is necessary), or am I missing 
something obvious ?

Giliad
