Should timezone in backup jobs match server time?

Post by Loosus456 »

This is a screenshot from the web UI in v13.1.

Should the timezone at the top match the timezone of the backup jobs? As you can see, these are exactly 4 hours apart. I have confirmed the timezone in the host-management console is correct (New_York timezone).

Hi Jason,

It appears job backup job details displays time in UTC format. I’ll check it tomorrow in my lab and report it internally if I find the same behaviour.

Hi Jason,

The time matches in my lab.
Please open a case with Customer Support to investigate why you see different times.
Don't forget to provide me the case number.

I think we have determined that it's a (temporary) bug. We restarted the server, and the problem resolved.

As a test, we changed the timezone and were able to replicate it again: some views should the updated timezone, while others continue to show the previous timezone. This inconsistency occurs within the web UI and within the Windows installed version of the client.

So the bug seems to be that some parts of Veeam Backup and Replication do not immediately reflect the newly selected timezone (until the Veeam service is restarted).
