I Have Multiple Tomcat Instances, Now I Want Each to Run In a Different Time Zone

["Robinson, Eric" <er...@psmnv.com>]

 
I want to run multiple instances of tomcat on the same server, one
instance for each time zone. I have all the separate tomcats running
fine, but they are all using the server's time zone. I've been Googling
and have not found an effective way to do it. Can someone please tell me
how?

Not really an expert, but 2 methods come to mind :

1) maybe the most serious :
Each Tomcat runs in its own JVM.  There should be some JVM 
system.properties which determine that kind of thing, which should be 
settable with -D options on the java line that starts Tomcat.

Really, I don't really know this. But a previous issue of mine with a 
webapp that was resetting the language for the whole JVM leads me to 
believe this might work.

2) less serious :
Install VMWare server. Configure as many virtual machines as you need 
Tomcats. Give each its timezone and run a Tomcat in each.
