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.
