- <title>Description</title>
-
- <para>The <filename>/etc/localtime</filename> file configures the
- system-wide timezone of the local system that is used by
- applications for presentation to the user. It should be an
- absolute or relative symbolic link pointing to
- <filename>/usr/share/zoneinfo/</filename>, followed by a timezone
- identifier such as <literal>Europe/Berlin</literal> or
- <literal>Etc/UTC</literal>. The resulting link should lead to the
- corresponding binary
- <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>tzfile</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- timezone data for the configured timezone.</para>
-
- <para>Because the timezone identifier is extracted from the
- symlink target name of <filename>/etc/localtime</filename>, this
- file may not be a normal file or hardlink.</para>
-
- <para>The timezone may be overridden for individual programs by
- using the <varname>$TZ</varname> environment variable. See
- <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>environ</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
-
- <para>You may use
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>timedatectl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- to change the settings of this file from the command line during
- runtime. Use
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-firstboot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- to initialize the time zone on mounted (but not booted) system
- images.</para>
