Changing cluster timezone

1

Set up a cluster lab and didn’t pay attention to the fact that the cluster defaults to UTC (or I let it set to UTC). All my hardware BIOS clocks are set to local date/time.

I have read through the documentation and found a github pr that says that timezone and ntp can go into the network, but I am confused as to how this would apply to a cluster.

Any guidance on how to change a cluster’s timezone and make sure its syncing to NTP?

The cluster doesn’t care about timezones at all. You can change the individual servers timezone to have their on-screen clock and logs show your timezone of choice.

Thanks, Stéphane. I was overthinking it. I just changed the hardware clocks in the BIOS. No issues.
