Time zone issue in MFASTC

Products

• Advanced Authentication Mainframe

Issue/Introduction

Encountering an issue where MFASTC doesn't display the correct time when running tests with Java 8 on z/OS 2.5. However, this problem doesn't occur when using Java 17 on z/OS 3.1. 

Environment

Java 8

Cause

parm missing

Resolution

Added a timezone in MFAPARMS will correct the time issue. It should always be followed by the export of the IBM Java options eg:
IJO="$IJO -Duser.timezone=US/Central" 
export IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS="$IJO "
