1N/AThe /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/src directory contains zoneinfo timezone source

1N/Afiles. These source files have been compiled using zic(1M) to create

1N/Athe zoneinfo data files in /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo. The zic command can be

1N/Aused with the zoneinfo source files to create additional data files.

1N/A

1N/AThe zoneinfo files track the Olson public source provided at

1N/Aftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/, therefore zoneinfo files may be added and

1N/Aremoved as the Solaris source is updated. The current Solaris release of

1N/Athe zoneinfo files is based on tzdata2010i.tar.gz.

1N/A

1N/AThe /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT[+-]* timezones listed below have been

1N/Aremoved from the release. Replace usage of the

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT[+-]* files with the equivalent quoted timezone

1N/A(see environ(5)). Note the signs of the offsets of the equivalent quoted

1N/Atimezone are reversed from the signs of the /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT[+-]*

1N/Afiles.

1N/A

1N/AFor example, replace TZ=:GMT+1, with TZ="<GMT-1>-1". (The colon (:) is

1N/Asignificant. Without the colon, for example TZ=GMT+1, an unquoted timezone

1N/Ais used; unquoted timezones are not affected by the removal of the zoneinfo

1N/Atimezone files listed below.)

1N/A

1N/AThe following files have been removed from the release:

1N/A

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+1

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+2

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+3

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+4

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+5

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+6

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+7

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+8

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+9

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+10

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+11

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+12

1N/A/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/GMT+13

1N/A

1N/AAs zoneinfo timezones are updated, the savings/daylight transition rules

1N/Aand timezone name abbreviations may change. This can affect how

1N/Athe times are calculated in the local timezone. Therefore the interpretation

1N/Aof a time_t value can vary amongst Solaris releases that use different

1N/Aversions of the zoneinfo timezones.

1N/A

1N/AThe zoneinfo timezone data files do not transition past

1N/ATue Jan 19 03:14:07 2038 GMT. Therefore for 64-bit applications using

1N/Azoneinfo timezones, calculations beyond this date may not use the correct

1N/Aoffset from standard time, and could return incorrect values. This affects

1N/A64-bit versions of interfaces such as ascftime(3C), cftime(3C), ctime(3C),

1N/Agetdate(3C), ftime(3C), mktime(3C), and localtime(3C).

1N/Actime(3C), and mktime(3C) man pages.
