Connecting Cloud Innovators: Building Community at .NEXT 2024
Hi Gandahar, Having experienced this recently I can shed some light. The BIOS time is critical and must be set to the correct time. As BIOS do not contain timezones UTC0 time must be used. This will ensure the hypervisors have the correct time when the cluster is created (assuming AHV). The default timezone is PDT. I have found that when applying AHV patches the timezone is always reverted to PDT, even if you have specified another custom timezone (this may have been resolved?) The iDRAC timezone is inconsequential. This timezone is used to ensure the logs are timestamped to a timezone that is meaningful to you. AHV will retrieve NTP updates from the ntp server you specify during cluster creation. Its important to ensure that the foundation VM (if using this), has the correct time. If using AHV the foundation VM will push its time to the CVM. Timezones again are inconsequntial as long as the time on the device is the correct time for the timezone choosen on the foundaiton V
