The TZ environment variable governs what time zone the message in the install.log contain. The "time zone" config file keyword does not have any effect on the messages that occur during the install, but does determine the time zone setting on the target system (the two can be independently set).

To set the TZ environment variable, it is best to do so in the INSTALLFS file so that it is set as early in the process as possible. However, the first message will still be in EST since it is produced before the config file contents of INSTALLFS are read. The procedure for setting this to MST7DT is:

/opt/ignite/bin/instl_adm -d > /tmp/cur_cfg
echo 'env_vars += "TZ=MST7MDT"' >> /tmp/cur_cfg
/opt/ignite/bin/instl_adm -f /tmp/cur_cfg
