I'm running Jenkins as a system package on a Redhat-like system. The 
infinitesimal documentation on how to change the time zone indicates that 
adding one of the following lines to /etc/sysconfig/jenkins should change 
the timezone, but neither does.

JAVA_ARGS="user.timezone='America/Los Angeles'"
JAVA_ARGS="-Dorg.apache.commons.jelly.tags.fmt.timeZone=America/Los Angeles"

The Jenkins user is also set up to use PDT, but that was also not 
sufficient. The only successful course of action was to change the system 
time, which a non-root user would not be able to do.

This message is informational, to make it known that a very basic task in 
Jenkins - changing the time zone - is not documented in a way that actually 
works. A Jenkins setting to change the timezone might also be a helpful 
addition.
