nv show system

Notes

The time zone may be specified in one of three ways:

  • A nearby city whose time zone rules to follow. The system has a large list of cities which can be displayed by the help and completion system. They are organized hierarchically because there are too many of them to display in a flat list. A given city may be required to be specified in two, three, or four words, depending on the city

  • An offset from Etc/GMT. This will be in the form Etc/GMT-offset, Etc/GMT+<0-14>, Etc/GMT-<1-12>

  • Etc/UTC (Universal Time, which is almost identical to GMT), and this is the default time zone
