Hi,
I've just changed the system time zone from local time to UTC by
copying /usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/UTC to /etc/localtime. To my dismay, I
found that crontab (both /etc/crontab and user-level crontab) completely
ignores the change and continues executing scripts according to the old
time.
What am I doing wrong?
To my knowledge, timezone is taken from the environment when a process
starts. If you want cron to honor the new timezone, restart cron, or
set the TZ explicitly in the relevant crontab.
