Nagios Support Forum

Hi Team,

We have noticed the time shown by the graph, last check everything different from the local server time. Attached some screenshots for your reference.

Timezone set as America/Los_Angeles. But time in the graph and last check shows Asia/Dubai.

Are there any settings that need to change to reflect the timezone?

I believe the graphs use your browser TZ.

Are you using postgresql? If so, you may need to change the timezone setting in /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf and then restart postgresql.

Also, check the MySQL TZ settings:

Hi Team,

Yes, the graphs use the browser TZ. We have verified it.

I think Nagiosxi should use the server TZ, not the browser TZ. In another region, the Nagiosxi graph timezone is the same as server timezone.

We are not using the Postgresql. Please see below the MySQL TZ settings:

[root@qy-nagios-a ~]# mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -uroot -pnagiosxi -e 'SELECT NOW(); SELECT @@GLOBAL.time_zone, @@SESSION.time_zone;'
+---------------------+
| NOW() |
+---------------------+
| 2021-03-08 22:25:16 |
+---------------------+
+--------------------+---------------------+
| @@GLOBAL.time_zone | @@SESSION.time_zone |
+--------------------+---------------------+
| SYSTEM | SYSTEM |
+--------------------+---------------------+

That's the way it was coded , I've previously submitted a feature request to not use the browser TZ but it hasn't been implemented yet.

In another region, the Nagiosxi graph timezone is the same as server timezone.

Is the server in the same TZ as the browser? If so, then it would match.
