This page will explain how to set what time NMIS and OMK applications display data in.
NMIS will display data relative to the local system time of the server that it is running on. The best method of changing local time on the server varies based on the Operating System.
Find the desired timezone in the /usr/share/timezone directory.
### Confirm the current timezone [root@opmantek ~]# date Sat Apr 22 13:43:59 KST 2017 ### Remove current timezone config [root@opmantek ~]# rm -rf /etc/localtime ### Set to desired timezone [root@opmantek ~]# ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC /etc/localtime ### Verify [root@opmantek ~]# date Sat Apr 22 04:46:29 UTC 2017 |
Use the dpkg-reconfigure utility with the tzdata argument
root@DebTest:~#dpkg-reconfigure tzdata |
This will launch a GUI in the terminal and guide the user through the process.
### Find the desired timezone [root@localhost ~]# timedatectl list-timezones ### Confirm current timezone [root@localhost ~]# date Sat Apr 22 01:05:47 EDT 2017 ### Change to desired timezone [root@localhost ~]# timedatectl set-timezone UTC ### Verify [root@localhost ~]# date Sat Apr 22 05:06:04 UTC 2017 |
