14. Set Local Time Zone: Now the procedure asks you to configure the local time zone. For

local time zone support to work correctly, the installation procedure must set the time zone
that accurately describes the location you want to be your default time zone. Usually, this
is the time zone in which your system is running. In addition, the procedure asks you to set
the OpenVMS time differential factor (TDF).

The procedure displays the main time zone menu. You can select the time zone in either of
two ways:
•

Select the number in the main time zone menu that best represents the time zone desired.
(If multiple time zones exist for the selection you make, you must select the exact time
zone from another menu.)

•

Use a search option that allows you to bypass the time zone menu and search by name
(partial or full).

If you select one of the numbers in the time zone menu, the corresponding time zone is
selected. At any prompt, you can enter a question mark (?) for help information.

NOTE:

An asterisk (*) next to a number indicates that more than one time zone exists for

that selection. If you select such a number, an additional menu displays choices that allow
you to select the appropriate time zone. For example, if you choose the United States (US)
time zone from the main time zone menu, a second menu displays the specific time zones
within the United States.

The following example shows how you would select the Eastern time zone for the United
States by using the menu number:
