VMWare Esxi 6.5(实际为5.x,6.x)时区问题

Esxi不支持修改时区，但是可以使用ESX或者Centos 6/7的localtime文件进行替换以实现时区修改，问题是，重启后文件会被还原。

详细的纠结过程就不说了，终级解决方案如下(给公司写的，现分享出来)：

大概思路是：将centos 6中/usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Shanghai文件（如果是它国时区，请自行替换base64内容）进行base64编码，然后使用shell脚本生成python脚本并执行后进行解码。

将以下shell脚本代码段添加到ESXI的/etc/rc.local.d/local.sh文件中，贴在exit 0之前重启便可。

如果想立刻生效，只需将以下代码段贴到任意位置的将建shell脚本文件中（如：/tmp/set_time_zone.sh）后执行此脚本就行。

#Add script to /etc/rc.local.d/local.sh before 'exit 0' in VMWare esxi 5.x/6.x
#以下请设置临时文件路径/Set temp script file path
temp_shell_script_path="/tmp/set_timezone.sh"
#以下请设置localtime路径(如需测试请填写其它自定义路径，默认请填写/etc/localtime),Set localtime file path,e.g. "/etc/localtime"
sys_localtime_path="/etc/localtime"
#In python echo base64,because VMWare ESxi have no command "base64".
echo "#Beijing Joycore Technology Co., Ltd. " > $temp_shell_script_path
echo "#Set Timezone For VMWARE-ESXI 5.x/6.x" >> $temp_shell_script_path
