Modifying an Existing Time Zone

This section describes how to modify an existing time zone. For example, you might want to change the name of a time zone, such as “America/Phoenix” to “US/Arizona”.

To Modify an Existing Time Zone

1. Modify the time-zone block for the time zone you want to change in the following file:

   cal_svr_base/SUNWics5/cal/data/timezones.ics

   If you are changing a time-zone name, change the TZID entry to the new name.

2. Modify the getDisplayNameofTZID template in the following file:

   cal_svr_base/SUNWics5/cal/html/language/i18n.xsl file

   where: language specifies the directory for the language your site is using. For example: en for English or fr for French.

   If you are changing the name, change the existing time-zone name to the new name.

3. Modify the following XML files for changes to the time zone:

   cal_svr_base/SUNWics5/cal/html/change_timezone.xml cal_svr_base/SUNWics5/cal/html/new_cal.xml cal_svr_base/SUNWics5/cal/html/new_group.xml

   For information about the entries in these files, see Adding a New Time Zone.

4. If the change affects the default time zone for user preferences, modify the “icsTimeZone” entry in the following file:

   cal_svr_base/SUNWics5/cal/html/default_user_prefs.xml

5. Stop (if necessary) and then restart Calendar Server for your time-zone changes to take effect.
