Yes, I did set TZ to IST-2IDT five months ago on /etc/profile, and at additional places , such as: /etc/init.options /etc/httpd.envvars /etc/csh.login /usr/local/zoneinfo ...and, of course, also on CEEDOPT, CEECOPT, and on CELQDOPT sectors of CEEPRM00...to no avail. Something is still missing. I can't believe an IPL is required for USS to pick timezone switch back.
