Hi,
I'm experimenting with changing our agents to UTC. However i noticed that the alarm console uses servertime (utc) instead of local time to display the alarm time/ root time. Even when changing the regional setting in cube. Is this correct?
Hi Gerwin,
Dataminer cube will always show the information based on the server time.
This does not only apply to alarms, but also to trending, resource usage etc.
If I'm not mistaken, the rationale behind this is that all users of the system will get the same data, regardless of the configuration of the client machine where you consume the data.
e.g. when collaborating with a different user to troubleshoot an alarm, you don't have to worry if their setup is identical to yours.
It's also for this reason that you have the option to visualize the server time in the upper right-hand corner of your cube window.
