HP-UX 11i Java tzupdater Release Notes
Introduction
The tzupdater 1.4.3 tool is provided to allow the updating of installed JDK/JRE images
with more recent time zone data in order to accommodate the U.S. 2007 daylight saving
time changes (US2007DST) originating with the "U.S. Energy Policy Act of 2005", DST
rule changes for Crimea and several other changes introduced in tzdata2014b.
HP recommends using the latest HP Java SE JDK/JRE update release as the preferred
vehicle for delivering both time zone data updates and other product improvements such
as security fixes; however, if the end user or system administrator is unable to use the
latest HP JDK/JRE update release, this tool provides a means of updating time zone data
while leaving other system configuration and dependencies unchanged.
This version of the tzupdater tool delivers Olson data tzdata2014b. For information
about the time zone changes and free downloads of the tzupdater tool, refer to the Java
Daylight Savings Time (DST) Downloads and Documentation page.
System requirements
The tzupdater 1.4.3 tool supports HP's JDK/JRE releases 1.4.0 and later (1.4.0, 1.4.1,
1.4.2, 5.0, 6.0, and 7.0) on all supported platforms.
The java.vendor property value must be "Hewlett-Packard Co.".
Installation
Download the Z7550-01418_tzupdater-1.4.3-2014b.tar tool bundle from the
tzupdater Download page to your system's local directory. Extract it in any directory
and you will see a tzupdater.jar file. Use tzupdater.jar to update the new time
zone changes for your JDK. The “Usage ” (page 7) section (below) provides more
information on how to use the tzupdater.jar file to update the time zone changes.
