timezone - set the local timezone
timezone [ name ]
timezone sets the system timezone and saves the setting for use on subsequent
boots. The argument name specifies the timezone to use. See the
system documentation for a complete list of time zone names. If no argument
is supplied, the current time zone name is printed.
Each timezone is described by a file that is kept in the /etc/zoneinfo
directory on the filer. The name argument is actually the name of the file
under /etc/zoneinfo that describes the timezone to use. For instance, the
name "America/Los_Angeles" refers to the timezone file
/etc/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles. These files are in standard ``Arthur
Olson'' timezone file format, as used on many flavors of UNIX (SunOS 4.x
and later, 4.4BSD, System V Release 4 and later, and others).
GMT+13 is to allow DST for timezone GMT+12.
