TZ environment

Latest response

Hi,

have some troubles regarding the timezone settings on a bunch of servers, running RHEL5.9.

The servers are located in Austria / CET, so I did the following timezone-configuration:

TZ=GMT+1
export TZ

Sadly, this setting does something wrong. The servers are now 1 hour behind GMT / 2 hours behind the local time (azores timezone).

 

I did a further test: 

 

TZ=GMT-1
export TZ

Now the servers are running on the correct local time, but I don't know why. In my mind, the local timezone is GMT+1, not GMT-1
I can't really find an answer, maybe someone here in this group is knowing an answer.
 
Thanks in advance
