User Parameters​

NameExampleRequiredDescription
@TimeZone@Central Standard TimeTrueThe desired time zone of the target endpoint. All available variables are listed at the bottom of the document, as well as the script notes in Automate.

Process​

The script will first verify the current time zone of the machine and compare that with the user parameter. If there is no change required, the script will exit with a message indicating that the time zone is already set to the user's submitted parameter.

If the current time zone does not match the user parameter, the script will run the command line function tzutil available in Windows to set the desired time zone.

The script will verify that the new time zone has been accepted by the system and will exit successfully if the new time zone was set as intended.

If the time zone is not accepted, the script will exit with an error message.
