  • 1.  Get TSM Server TimeZone

    I am looking to get the tsm server timezone from command line. I am not able to find any command in the documentation. Can anyone suggest how do I get it?

    SHOW TIME

    (Something different than Showtime, remembers me of Gary's Gang... good times)

    Ref: Show commands for the server or storage agent

    Does not show this command in the list, but the unofficial does:

    Hi Sharath, 

    You can use the command "SHOW TIME" or "SHOW CONFIGURATION".

    I find that it shows current OS time and GMT as well.

    If timezone changes on the server you will need to restart the SP server; here is a link to an older article:

    I am trying to get the timezone of the server from command line through tsm client which is installed on a different machine. Is it possible?

    Gents above are right.

    Add remark 

    get current server time 

    get GMT time 

    the difference between times is equal to the time zone
