[Glass] Default TimeZone ...

Why is the default TimeZone on my gemstone installation PDT - but the
system-wide (Linux) is CET ("TimeZone fromLinux" by the way returns
CEST, which is simply WRONG).

I was aware that VA had lot of troubles with Time zones - but Gemstone
with containers shipping worldwide I thought that this would work -
actually because they use ICU in other areas of their product ....

GemStone 3.1.0.4 under Ubuntu 12.0.4.x

CET/CEST is right - sorry for that ... but still, why and not the system
wide definition ?

Whenever I install a new image I execute the following script:

set user SystemUser pass swordfish gems push-server

display oops

iferror where

login

run

| osTZ |

System beginTransaction.

osTZ := TimeZone fromOS.

osTZ installAsCurrentTimeZone.

TimeZone default: osTZ.

TimeZoneInfo default: osTZ.

System commitTransaction.

%

hope this helps,

Norbert
