Hi Patrick, hope you are doing well
We identified the issue and it will be fixed in future version However, there is two workarounds that you can do in order to fix the issue: option 1- Change the existing VM's that is failing to default time-zone and try to do the process again option 2- you can extend the time-zones list and add the time-zone that is missing in order to do that you need to follow the instructions here <https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/blob/master/packaging/conf/timezones-defaults.properties#L18-L22> and then add this time zone line: America/Indianapolis=US Eastern Standard Time then restart the engine Thanks, Saif On Sun, Aug 29, 2021 at 9:02 PM Patrick Hibbs <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > > Unfortuately, I can't give you the exact information as oVirt doesn't > display that information on the VM import window.
