SET TimeZone="UTC";
SELECT now();
SET TimeZone="EST5EDT";
SELECT now();
and so on. Try selecting from your table, too, and you will discover
that the time zone of the timestamps changes. If you're used to
certain other RDBMSes, this mode of functioning will be unusual, but
that really is how it works.
Yes had tried this earlier and it works as expected.
I think I missed that observation earlier and then was looking to set timezone in postgreSQL.conf which could ultimately resolve this.
But better is to set the TimeZone. Now haven't done anything special but JDBC is working with setting TimeZone and ODBC not. So what should I look from here now?
