Configure Server Time Zone Settings

For File Watcher to load the data files it detects in a timely manner, the date and time settings on your servers—database server, the middle tier server where the WebLogic Server is installed, and the middle tier server(s) where the Oracle LSH Distributed Processing (DP) Server is installed—must all have the same date and time setting.

If your servers are located in different time zones, set the time zone manually or automatically. Then verify the setting used by the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). See the following topics for details:

• Set the TZ Environment Variable Manually
  
• Set the TZ Environment Variable Automatically
  
• Use the tzselect Utility
  
• Verify the Time Zone Setting Used by Java Virtual Machine (JVM)
