Setting Recurring Daylight Saving Time

Set a date (and time zone) on which to convert the switch to daylight saving time on a specific day every year.

If you have already set daylight saving for a one-time setting, you can set that date and time as the recurring setting with the clock summer-time time-zone recurring command.

To set a recurring daylight saving time, use the following command.

Set the clock to the appropriate timezone and adjust to daylight saving time every year.
