Ubuntu系统修改时区

Ubuntu系统修改时区

由于安装ubuntu系统的时候直接选择的是系统默认的时区，即0时区。这个时区和北京时间差了8个小时，所以得修改一下时区才能显示正确的时间。

在这里首先介绍两个命令：

• date 查看系统时间
• date -R 查看系统时间中的时区

接下来介绍修改时区的方法
1、首先使用sudo tzselect命令

vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64$ sudo tzselect
Please identify a location so that time zone rules can be set correctly.
Please select a continent or ocean.
 1) Africa
 2) Americas
 3) Antarctica
 4) Arctic Ocean
 5) Asia
 6) Atlantic Ocean
 7) Australia
 8) Europe
 9) Indian Ocean
10) Pacific Ocean
11) none - I want to specify the time zone using the Posix TZ format.

#? 9
Please select one of the following time zone regions.
1) Beijing Time
2) Xinjiang Time
#? 1

The following information has been given:

        China
        Beijing Time

Therefore TZ='Asia/Shanghai' will be used.
Local time is now:      Thu Dec 22 11:01:59 CST 2016.
Universal Time is now:  Thu Dec 22 03:01:59 UTC 2016.
Is the above information OK?
1) Yes
2) No
#? 1

You can make this change permanent for yourself by appending the line
        TZ='Asia/Shanghai'; export TZ
to the file '.profile' in your home directory; then log out and log in again.

Here is that TZ value again, this time on standard output so that you
can use the /usr/bin/tzselect command in shell scripts:
Asia/Shanghai

2、按照上面的提示输入之后就可以使用最后提示的那个命令来实现最终的修改。

TZ='Asia/Shanghai'; export TZ
