3 The /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/src directory contains zoneinfo timezone source |
|
4 files. These source files have been compiled using zic(1M) to create |
|
5 the zoneinfo data files in /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo. The zic command can be |
|
6 used with the zoneinfo source files to create additional data files. |
|
7 |
|
8 The zoneinfo files track the Olson public source provided at |
|
9 ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/, therefore zoneinfo files may be added and |
|
10 removed as the Solaris source is updated. The current Solaris release of |
|
11 the zoneinfo files is based on tzdata2011h.tar.gz. |
|
12 |
|
13 The /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT[+-]* timezones listed below have been |
|
14 removed from the release. Replace usage of the |
|
15 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT[+-]* files with the equivalent quoted timezone |
|
16 (see environ(5)). Note the signs of the offsets of the equivalent quoted |
|
17 timezone are reversed from the signs of the /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT[+-]* |
|
18 files. |
|
19 |
|
20 For example, replace TZ=:GMT+1, with TZ="<GMT-1>-1". (The colon (:) is |
|
21 significant. Without the colon, for example TZ=GMT+1, an unquoted timezone |
|
22 is used; unquoted timezones are not affected by the removal of the zoneinfo |
|
23 timezone files listed below.) |
|
24 |
|
25 The following files have been removed from the release: |
|
26 |
|
27 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-12 |
|
28 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-11 |
|
29 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-10 |
|
30 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-9 |
|
31 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-8 |
|
32 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-7 |
|
33 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-6 |
|
34 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-5 |
|
35 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-4 |
|
36 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-3 |
|
37 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-2 |
|
38 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT-1 |
|
39 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+1 |
|
40 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+2 |
|
41 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+3 |
|
42 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+4 |
|
43 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+5 |
|
44 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+6 |
|
45 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+7 |
|
46 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+8 |
|
47 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+9 |
|
48 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+10 |
|
49 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+11 |
|
50 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+12 |
|
51 /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+13 |
|
52 |
|
53 As zoneinfo timezones are updated, the savings/daylight transition rules |
|
54 and timezone name abbreviations may change. This can affect how |
|
55 the times are calculated in the local timezone. Therefore the interpretation |
|
56 of a time_t value can vary amongst Solaris releases that use different |
|
57 versions of the zoneinfo timezones. |
