Time zone?


 

OK, so for this VM n00b, how do I set the timezone like I would with PARMTZ in MVS? I'm using the CE 1.1.1 to run the TK4- system. I know the hardware TOD clock runs in GMT, but I'd like other things to run on CDT (GMT-5)...so, for example, the auto monitor start and stop runs at 9 and 5 like they're supposed to instead fo 4 and noon, and so on.

I don’t think you can. ?I remember writing a CP mod for VM/ESA 2.2 ish that added per-VM time zones clock offsets but I don’t have that mod available.

Hi Jay,

The CP source member is DMKSYS ASSEMBLE.? To change it requires a re-assembly of the module and a rebuild of the Nucleus.? The information can be found in the IBM Virtual Machine Facility/370: Planning and System Generation Guide GC20-1801-10.? Not for the faint of heart, but with a good backup, its do-able.

Regards,

Gary

SYSGEN for CP.

Macro is SYSTIME. Page 175 in this book...

Jay,

I can confirm that the CP file to change is DMKSYS ASSEMBLE.

You will need to check which is the current file.

I am in the process of changing my 3 pack, 4 packs, 5 packs and 6 packs
to have the line:-

SYSTIME ZONE=1,LOC=EAST,ID=BST .

Having done that you need to assemble the file using

VMFASM DMKSYS DMKHRC

and then generate the CP nucleus.

Details of this for the 6 pack are in SYSPROG MEMO.

I haven't yet looked at CE 1.1.1.

Each build of VM370 seems slightly different.

CE 1.1.1 seems to be detailed in MAINT MEMO.

Chris

If you are running CE 1.1.1 then you need to follow the instructions in “MAINT MEMO B” otherwise, you will build a CP without the VM CE mods.

?

Its pretty straight forward, should take about 10 minutes.
