TIBCO iProcess® Engine 11.9.1

# TIMEZONE

General iProcess Engine Configuration

## Summary

This attribute defines the time zone that this iProcess Engine node will operate in.

## Applies To

The attribute must be set for ALL processes.

## Permissible Values

The `TIMEZONE` value must be a valid time zone recognized by the operating system. It should be specified as a string in the following format:

`tzn`[+|-]`hh`[:`mm`[:`ss`]][`dzn`]

where:

| • | `tzn` is a 3-letter name that identifies the time zone, such as GMT or EST. Any meaningful name can be used.

| • | [+|-]`hh`[:`mm`[:`ss`] defines the number of hours (and, optionally, minutes and seconds) that the time zone is ahead of or behind `GMT`. This number represents an offset i.e. the figure to be subtracted from GMT, so timezones that are:

| — | `behind` GMT should be specified as a `positive` value.

| — | `ahead of` GMT should be specified as a `negative` value.

| • | `dzn` is a 3-letter name that identifies a daylight-saving time zone, such as BST. If `dzn` is set daylight saving is enabled and the date and time are adjusted accordingly. Any meaningful name can be used.

## Examples

Any of the following strings can be used to define the `TIMEZONE` value for Washington D.C. (Eastern Standard Time, GMT-05:00):

`5
EST5
EST+5
EST05:00`

Any of the following strings can be used to define the `TIMEZONE` value for Sydney, Australia (Western Standard Tim, GMT+10:00):

`-10
GMT-10
GMT-10:00:00`

## Default Value

This attribute is not defined on a newly installed iProcess Engine. If required, it must be explicitly set up using the `SET_ATTRIBUTE` command. By default, iProcess Engine will use the host computer’s local time.

## Notes

This attribute should be set if an iProcess Engine node installed on a computer operating in one time zone is being accessed by TIBCO iProcess Workspace instances that are operating in different time zones, to avoid discrepancies between the server and client timestamps. For more information, see Configuring iProcess Engine Time Zone.
