customization specification set timezone linux

[NucleusVM]

I am creating a new customization specification using this command:
New-OSCustomizationSpec -OSType Linux -Name "lnx_spec_tmp" -Domain "domain.name" -DnsSuffix "dns.suffix" -DnsServer $dns

This works great, but doesn't set the timezone. So I change it to this:
New-OSCustomizationSpec -OSType Linux -Name "lnx_spec_tmp" -Domain "domain.name" -DnsSuffix "dns.suffix" -DnsServer $dns -TimeZone 130

Now, when I run it, I get a prompt for "Fullname", so I change it to this:
New-OSCustomizationSpec -OSType Linux -Name "lnx_spec_tmp" -Domain "domain.name" -DnsSuffix "dns.suffix" -DnsServer $dns -TimeZone 130 -FullName "fullnamehere"

Now, when I run it, I get a prompt for "OrgName", so I change it to this:
New-OSCustomizationSpec -OSType Linux -Name "lnx_spec_tmp" -Domain "domain.name" -DnsSuffix "dns.suffix" -DnsServer $dns -TimeZone 130 -FullName "fullnamehere" -OrgName "orgnamehere"

And now I get the error:
New-OSCustomizationSpec : 06/07/2017 18:30:06    New-OSCustomizationSpec        You must specify only parameters that belong to the same parameter set, Windows or Linux.

What I'm I doing wrong here?

Seems to be working ok for me.

Which PowerCLI version are you using (do a Get-PowerCLIVersion).

PS: part of your code was cut off, I can't see each line of code to the end.

[NucleusVM]

I am using powercli version 6.0 release 1 build 2548067

I edited the original post to make it appear better.

[LucD]

Can you eventually upgrade to PowerCLI 6.5.1, and check if that makes a difference?

Hello,

I'm having the same issue and I believe it's due to the fact that -timezone doesn't work for Linux deployments.

I'm using the latest powercli version.

Maybe someone can confirm this.

Thanks

That is correct, see also the text on the TimeZone parameter on the Set-OsCustomizationSpec cmdlet.

It clearly states "Specifies the name or ID of the time zone for a Windows guest OS only."

Thanks Luc,

It seems that this "Windows guest OS" comment has been included in the latest version(s) of the documentation, but not in previous ones:

Set-OSCustomizationSpec - vSphere PowerCLI Cmdlets Reference

Thanks again

[LucD]

That is correct.
