Time zones and UTC offsets
Because a time zone’s UTC offset can change throughout the year (for example, based on Daylight Saving Time), Skytap stores a regional time zone string instead of a UTC offset. Skytap converts the time zone to the current UTC offset as needed for reporting and scheduling.
Skytap supports the full list of time zones in the IANA Time Zone Database.
Skytap also supports the friendlier time zone names listed below, organized by their UTC offsets outside of Daylight Saving Time. Skytap doesn’t accept unlisted values such as PST or PDT.
