Hi,

the oVirt guest agent seems to report DST configuration for the 
timezone since version 4.3 (of the guest agent). this results in 
"Actual timezone in guest doesn't match configuration" messages in 
the UI for windows VMs because the timezone field can't be matched 
with oVirt configuration anymore (no DST flag). to me this looks like 
a bug. shall I report it?


Yes please. With more details if possible:) We started using qemu-ga 
for these and it’s possible that the report differs in this aspect. 
Then it needs to be fixed


Thanks,

I know there was a similar thread at the beginning of May, but there 
was no solution mentioned.

I live in Vienna.

When I configure Windows VM Hardware Clock Time Offset as "Central 
European Standard Time" the problem goes away. I still don't know what 
this "W. Europe Standard Time (UTC+01:00)" timezone that Windows uses 
and reports and that is choosable in oVirt actually is, this causes the 
error IMHO (since "recently"...).


According to Wikipedia there's only "Western European Time" (UTC+00:00) 
and Vienna has "Central European Time" (UTC+01:00).


Timezones and DST are a PITA.




I'm sorry, I didn't want to be rude, but I'm a bit desperate with this...

Just when I thought I explained it I'm seeing a Windows 10 VM (Hardware 
Clock Time Offset: CET) that reports "W. Europe Daylight Time 
(UTC+02:00)" _again_ and the "doesn't match configuration" error is 
back. I thought I beat the "DST" reporting by setting VM "Hardware Clock 
Time Offset" correctly because I didn't see any effect of the Windows 
"Adjust for DST automatically" configuration on the reported timezone. 
This seemed to be true for Windows Server 2016 and Windows 7...


I'm giving up on this for now, I don't control all of the Windows VMs, 
maybe someone finds the missing part


All VMs are using oVirt Guest Tools 4.3-3.el7 (from oVirt 4.3.4) in 
oVirt engine 4.3.3


thanks
Matthias
