To Add a New Time Zone

1. Add a time-zone block for the new time zone in the following file:

   cal_svr_base/SUNWics5/cal/data/timezones.ics

   Again, the simplest way to add a new time-zone block is to copy an existing block that is similar, including any daylight savings time (DST) offsets, to the time zone you want to add. Then, edit the new time-zone block, making any changes for the new time zone. If your new time zone has Daylight Savings Time (DST), try to find a similar

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.

   Add the new entry in the i18n.xsl file as:

   <xsl:when test="$tzid=’TimeZoneArea/ TimeZoneName’"TimeZoneArea/ TimeZoneName</xsl:when\>

   where:

   TimeZoneArea is one of the geographic divisions: Africa, America, Asia, Atlantic, Australia, Europe, or Pacific.

   TimeZoneName is the name of your new time zone.

   For example:

   <xsl:when test="$tzid='America/Miami'"\>America/Miami</xsl:when\>

3. Modify the following XML files:

   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

   In each of these files, add the following line:

   <timezone type="TimeZoneType" tzid="TimeZoneArea/TimeZoneName" offset="offset">

   where:

   TimeZoneType is "americas","europeAfrica", or "asiaPacific".

   TimeZoneArea and TimeZoneName are defined in Adding a New Time Zone.

   offset is the number of hours that your new time zone is ahead (+) or behind (-) GMT. For example, if your new time zone is four hours behind GMT, the offset would be "-04:00".

   For example:

   <timezone type="americas" tzid="America/Miami" offset="-05:00" daylightOffset="-04:00">

4. If you want the new time zone to be the default time zone for user preferences, modify the timezone 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 new time zone to take effect.
