Change MySQL Timezone

If your server is in a different timezone, a quick fix is to update the timezone of the server. I did that previously, but that turned out is not enough. I had to change the timezone of mysql daemon too. Here is how I did it:

SET GLOBAL time_zone = 'America/Los_Angeles';

SET SESSION time_zone = 'America/Los_Angeles';

Check it using:
SELECT @@global.time_zone, @@session.time_zone;
