config timezone ​

List the supported time zones, get the currently set time zone, or set a new time zone.

config timezone get
config timezone list
config timezone set <country> <city>

timezone get

Return the current time zone that is in effect on both manager nodes.

YBCLI (PRIMARY)> config timezone get

Current timezone: America/Los_Angeles

Remote manager node
-------------------

Current timezone: America/Los_Angeles

timezone list

List all supported time zones.

YBCLI (PRIMARY)> config timezone list

Africa  Abidjan
Africa  Accra
Africa  Addis_Ababa
Africa  Algiers
...

Note that the entries are separated by spaces. When you set the time zone, use country <space> city. The list is very long so you may want to save it to a file.

[ybdadmin@yb100-mgr0 ~]$ ybcli config timezone list > ybtz.txt
[ybdadmin@yb100-mgr0 ~]$

timezone set

Set the time zone on the manager nodes. When you set the time zone, use a space character, not a backslash, between the country or region and the city name. For example: config timezone set Europe Paris

Changing the time zone requires the database to be stopped and restarted, as shown here:

YBCLI (PRIMARY)> config timezone set America Los_Angeles
 
Changing the timezone requires the database to be stopped. Are you sure you want to change the timezone?
