TZRELOAD(8) Maintenance Commands and Procedures TZRELOAD(8)
NAME
tzreload - notify timezone update
SYNOPSIS
tzreload [-a]DESCRIPTION
The
tzreload command triggers processes to reread timezone information.
The timezone information is cached in each process. In response to a
tzreload command, this cache is updated on the next call to
ctime(3C) and
mktime(3C) by each process. By default,
tzreload only triggers
this update for the current zone.
In addition to updating processes, the
tzreload command also notifies
cron(8) to reinitialize the job scheduler with the new timezone
information.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-a Update processes in all zones.
FILES
/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo Standard zone information directory.

Although
tzreload reinitializes
cron(8), applications that are affected
by timezone changes still need to be restarted or reinitialized if they
do not reread the new timezone information before timezone changes take
place.
