Hi Derek,

The settings you have done are enough to change the timezone. The time is still 
getting reported in GMT because that's the expected behavior.
Suppose you did these settings :

usage.stats.job.exec.time = 20:30
usage.execution.timezone = Asia/Taipei
usage.aggregation.timezone = Asia/Taipei


Now what happens is, CS converts this Asia/Taipei timezone to GMT timezone and 
then prints its equivalent in the usage_job table under the heartbeat column. 
Now the equivalent of 20:30 in GMT is 12:30, so this is the time which will be 
shown in usage table.

So, at the end the usage stats will be generated only at the time which you 
have specified and the timezone you have specified in the global settings. Only 
the values will be converted to GMT and then print.
Hope this helps you.

Thanks and regards,
Abhinav

Hi

I've changed the two timezone settings (usage.aggregation.timezone,
usage.execution.timezone) in the Cloudstack Management server under Global 
Settings to Asia/Taipei as specified in Appendix A and restarted but the time 
seems to continue to be reported in GMT? Is there any other timezone settings?

Any help/pointer appreciated.



Derek
