Time Zones

By default, SMART folders and jobs run and execute in the time zone where the Server is located. You can change the time zone where your SMART folders and jobs run and execute in the scheduling definitions, as described in Scheduling. You can also define Site Standard rules with time zones, as described in Creating a Site Standard Rule.

Jobs that are scheduled to run in a user-defined time zone must be saved at least 48 hours before their intended execution dates. Jobs with different time zones must not be combined in the same folder. This ensures that the jobs automatically run via the appropriate New Day procedure or User Daily method. If a newly scheduled job has to run today, you must run it manually. For more information on New Day, see New Day Time.

For more information on running jobs in a specific time zone on a future date, see the -odate and -odate_option parameters in any of the following Monitoring utility parameter tables:
