timezone

Data Type

String, read-only

Description

The timezone variable contains a standard representation of the time zone on the machine from which the current task request was submitted (that is, the submit host). The timezone variable is relevant for users working in a cross-platform environment in which that submit host is a Sun machine that has its time zone set to a geographic region rather than the usual timezone file. Note that this variable applies to Solaris installations. The format of the timezone variable is dependent upon the operating system configuration parameters.

There is no run version of this variable.

Valid Values

A string that contains the standard representation of the time zone. The format of the timezone variable is dependent upon operating system configuration parameters. This is a read-only variable.
