MYSQL_TZINFO_TO_S(1)                 MariaDB Database System                 MYSQL_TZINFO_TO_S(1)

NAME
       mysql_tzinfo_to_sql - load the time zone tables

SYNOPSIS
       mysql_tzinfo_to_sql arguments

DESCRIPTION
       The mysql_tzinfo_to_sql program loads the time zone tables in the mysql database. It is
       used on systems that have a zoneinfo database (the set of files describing time zones).
       Examples of such systems are Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, and Mac OS X. One likely location
       for these files is the /usr/share/zoneinfo directory (/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo on Solaris).

       mysql_tzinfo_to_sql can be invoked several ways:

           shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql tz_dir
           shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql tz_file tz_name
           shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql --leap tz_file

       For the first invocation syntax, pass the zoneinfo directory path name to
       mysql_tzinfo_to_sql and send the output into the mysql program. For example:

           shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo | mysql -u root mysql

       mysql_tzinfo_to_sql reads your system´s time zone files and generates SQL statements from
       them.  mysql processes those statements to load the time zone tables.

       The second syntax causes mysql_tzinfo_to_sql to load a single time zone file tz_file that
       corresponds to a time zone name tz_name:

           shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql tz_file tz_name | mysql -u root mysql

       If your time zone needs to account for leap seconds, invoke mysql_tzinfo_to_sql using the
       third syntax, which initializes the leap second information.  tz_file is the name of your
       time zone file:

           shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql --leap tz_file | mysql -u root mysql

       After running mysql_tzinfo_to_sql, it is best to restart the server so that it does not
       continue to use any previously cached time zone data.

MariaDB 10.3                                9 May 2017                       MYSQL_TZINFO_TO_S(1)

mysql_tzinfo_to_sql  Ver 1.1 Distrib 10.3.25-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64)

Usage:
 mysql_tzinfo_to_sql [options] timezonedir
 mysql_tzinfo_to_sql [options] timezonefile timezonename

Default options are read from the following files in the given order:
/etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf 
The following groups are read: mysql_tzinfo_to_sql
The following options may be given as the first argument:
--print-defaults          Print the program argument list and exit.
--no-defaults             Don't read default options from any option file.
The following specify which files/extra groups are read (specified before remaining options):
--defaults-file=#         Only read default options from the given file #.
--defaults-extra-file=#   Read this file after the global files are read.
--defaults-group-suffix=# Additionally read default groups with # appended as a suffix.

  -?, --help          Display this help and exit.
  -#, --debug[=#]     This is a non-debug version. Catch this and exit
  -l, --leap          Print the leap second information from the given time
                      zone file. By convention, when --leap is used the next
                      argument is the timezonefile
  -v, --verbose       Write non critical warnings
  -V, --version       Output version information and exit.
  -S, --skip-write-binlog 
                      Do not replicate changes to time zone tables to other
                      nodes in a Galera cluster

Variables (--variable-name=value)
and boolean options {FALSE|TRUE}  Value (after reading options)
--------------------------------- ----------------------------------------
leap                              FALSE
verbose                           FALSE
skip-write-binlog                 FALSE
