				Hi All!
 
I have an AIX 6.1 TL2 with Message Broker 6.1.3 installed on it. AIX TZ is set to "Europe/Moscow" and command "date" shows correct time, date and timezone ( for example "15:00:00 GMT+04:00 2009"). All records which added to syslog are also have correct time. But when I start broker I see in syslog WMB's log records with time -4 hours from AIX time. So I suppose that Broker get somehow GMT time, instead AIX Europe/Moscow time. Also in message flow  the command "CURRENT_TIMESTAMP" results current time minus four hours. Is it possible to force Broker somehow use AIX's time?
 
Thank you in advance! |

				What is the output of 
 on your system when using the broker's system id? 
 
 
What is the output of the same command after you have run the mqsiprofile?

				#date 
 
Mon Apr  6 20:09:41 GMT+04:00 2009
 
# echo "TZ=${TZ}"
 
TZ=Europe/Moscow
 
# su - mbadmin
 
 
MQSI 6.1.0.3
 
/opt/IBM/mqsi/6.1
 
 
$ echo "TZ=${TZ}"
 
TZ=Europe/Moscow
 
$ date

I have found interesting thing. When  I export under root LIBPATH variable (took from mqsiprofile step by step) I've got the same result:
 
 
# export LIBPATH=$LIBPATH:/opt/IBM/mqsi/6.1/xml4c/lib64                    
 
# date
 
Mon Apr  6 16:10:04 Europe/Moscow 2009
 
 
 
Actually I don't understand what's going on and what I should do to fix this problem. If I correct time to +4 hours to the current time so in syslog will be wrong time for all applications except broker. Is there a way to fix it? |

				Hello, I suspect that the quickest way to resolve this one would be to raise a PMR...

While filling out that PMR, IBM has several APARs that could be relevant: "OLSON TIMEZONE SETTINGS IS NOT WORKING FOR 64BIT APPLICATIONS. APPLIES TO AIX 6100-02".  See IZ15026, IZ15027, and IZ15028.  (These APARs seem to be duplicates of each other; it's not clear why there's more than one.)  There is a fix available, (see fixinfo105557), which may or may not already be included as part of TL2; that's not clear either.
 
 
While waiting for IBM to resolve the PMR, here are some other possible workarounds:- Use a POSIX-style TZ, instead (e.g. "TZ=MSK-3MSD").
 - Or, change the order of directories in LIBPATH (e.g. "LIBPATH=/opt/IBM/mqsi/6.1/xml4c/lib64:$LIBPATH date").
