Timezone II
The Timezone II cookbook contains recipes for installing the latest tzdata
(a.k.a. IANA or Olson) timezone database and setting the timezone on your
system. It is a fork of the timezone cookbook by James
Harton.
Requirements
This cookbook is known to work with:
- Amazon Linux
- CentOS
- Debian
- Fedora
- Gentoo
- Ubuntu
It should work with any OS that uses the IANA/Olson timezone database and
stores local timezone data in /etc/localtime (the only OS I know of that does
not do this is MS Windows). However, some OSs not mentioned above have their
own system utility for setting the timezone, and this may overwrite the changes
made by this cookbook.

<tr>
<td><tt>['timezone']['localtime_path']</tt></td>
<td>String</td>
<td>the path to the file used by the kernel to read the local timezone's
settings; the default works for Linux and other *ix variants</td>
<td>/etc/localtime</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><tt>['timezone']['use_symlink']</tt></td>
<td>Boolean</td>
<td>whether to use a symlink into the tzdata tree rather than make a copy
of the appropriate timezone data file (linux-generic recipe only)</td>
<td>false</td>
</tr>
</table>
Usage
Set the "tz" attribute to your desired timezone and include the "timezone-ii"
recipe in your node's run list:
{
"name": "my_node",
"tz": "Africa/Timbuktu",
"run_list": [
"recipe[timezone-ii]"
]
}
The timezone-ii::default recipe will first install or upgrade the IANA/Olson
timezone database package for your OS (timezone-data on Gentoo, tzdata on
all others). Then it will call one of the following recipes according to your
node's platform:
timezone-ii::debiantimezone-ii::fedoratimezone-ii::linux-generic
