Description
Type string READONLY
Description
The time zone variable, tzname, contains the name of the time zone on the server at the time the event was read from the event log by pmlog. The time zone may be overridden using the TZ environment variable when running pmlog.
Note that tzname is accessible from pmlog but not in the policy script evaluation.
Example
# pmlog -p `sprintf("%s %s %s, %s, %s", date, time, tzname, event, uniqueid)’

The actual values may vary by platform. In this sample output, the value of tzname is "MDT".
The following example shows the use of the TZ variable acting on the output:
TZ=Europe/Paris pmlog -p `sprintf( "%s %s %s, %s", date, time, tzname, event )’ 2013-03-14 17:51:59 CET, Accept, 0b1c7ff3447ac074b4795be2dcd59f6429c8624b 2013-03-14 17:51:59 CET, Accept, a6cfad1ba6eb64bf9a17d5295b2bb29daa7fbb33 2013-03-14 17:51:59 CET, Accept, fa742929679bc6c88eadd25ff85d75361f1d28b2 2013-03-14 17:51:59 CET, Accept, 97ffdb433819c5feab6ec26b528f60dfb18c3d34 2013-03-15 14:02:47 CET, Accept, d84ac9052265912eb13d32f80584d1ae097e4ce5 2013-03-19 16:41:59 CET, Accept, b228110f32525c2092d2a46d0327e55f2dfc1d39
