Change timezone on HPUX

Zones: HP-UX Unix, Unix Operating Systems, Java Programming Language

Tags: timezone, change, hpux

I have a HPUX server with java 1.5.0.03

I have several java applications running on this server.

The problem is that the java applications use the wrong timezone when logging to a logfile. They use GMT time instead of GMT+8

I have tried to set the timezone on the server with
set_parms timezone and followed the guide

when I write date I get
Wed Jun 13 22:10:15 EAT 2007

Which is the correct time in Shanghai.

But my tasks logs the time at 070613T14:10:24
which is GMT time.

I suspect that java doesn't understand EAT. How do I change this? and to what??
