Is it possible to remain system's time in the summer time for now

whole year long on my laptop. How I can do that?

Set the system time zone to the proper offset from UTC, instead of
one of the names time zones. (GMT+x or GMT-x)

The offsets are still expresses from GMT instead of UTC...

Is it correct solution if I just make a symbolic link of /etc/localtime
to /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC ? But how I cab adjust offset then?
Should I do anything else than this? Will it not be reset at reboot?

No:
[root@potoroo ~]# ls -l /etc/localtime
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 440 Oct 22 07:40 /etc/localtime
[root@potoroo ~]#


RH does not use a symlink, /etc/localtime might be required before /usr is available.

I'm sure there's an entry in the Administration menu for this, but if you want to take a chance:
\rm -f /etc/localtime
\cp -pf /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC /etc/localtime
