In releases IBM i 7.2 and later, the time zone at the time of the save will be stored with BRMS save history so that it can be used as a reference during restores.
In releases IBM i 7.1 and earlier, the following data area should be used to restore spool file data that was saved in a different time zone than time zone of the system doing the restore:
CRTDTAARA QTEMP/Q1ASPLTMZN TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10) VALUE('xxxxxxxxxx')
where 'xxxxxxxxxx' is the time zone value of the system where the original save was done. For example:
CRTDTAARA QTEMP/Q1ASPLTMZN TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10) VALUE('Q0000UTC ')
Notes:
1. In releases IBM i 7.1 and earlier, the following PTFs or their superseding PTFs are required:
- 7.1 SI40005
- 6.1 SI40006
- V5R4M0 SI40001
