If you are unsure of the time zone syntax, issue the command timedatectl list-timezones. Keep in mind that the list of time zones is quite extensive as there are 425 possible selections. Therefore, utilize the grep command with the country or city to narrow down the selection list. See below example.[root@ruckusnetworkdirector ~]# timedatectl list-timezones | wc -l
425
[root@ruckusnetworkdirector ~]#
[root@ruckusnetworkdirector ~]# timedatectl list-timezones | grep -i denver
America/Denver
[root@ruckusnetworkdirector ~]#
[root@RND_3042_Alpha ~]# timedatectl set-timezone America/Denver
