Setting the Time Zone

The time zone used by iProcess Engine is stored using the TIMEZONE process attribute. Its value must be a valid time zone recognized by the operating system. See TIMEZONE.

By default, the TIMEZONE attribute is not set, and iProcess Engine uses the host server’s local time.

You can set the value of TIMEZONE using the SWDIR\util\swadm utility. If you want to:

• See what time zone iProcess Engine is currently operating in, use the SHOW_ALL_ATTRIBUTES command. See Display All Process Attributes.

• Configure iProcess Engine to operate in a different time zone, use the SET_ATTRIBUTE command. See Set a Process Attribute.

• Reset iProcess Engine to use the host server’s local time, use the DELETE_ATTRIBUTE command. See Delete a Process Attribute.

Using the SWDIR\util\swadm utility to change the time zone triggers an event informing the server processes that the time zone has changed. iProcess Engine does not need to be restarted for the change to take effect.
