1 hour time delay between alarm at device and eSight HA SuSe Linux edition

Handling Process


We checked SuSe system time and timezone. It was correct.

YaST2 Control Center, choose System and click Data and Time.

Checked device current time (display clock) it was also correct and the same as at Linux.

Used several CLI commands at Linux terminal.





Root Cause

****** has changed time from UTC+4 to UTC+3 at 26.10.2014.

Two parts from SUSE, time doesn’t match. Linux with time UTC+4; JRE with time UTC +3 ( eSight get time form JRE interface).

 Current time zone configure is UTC+4:

Solution


Install SUSE time zone patch at : https://download.suse.com/Download?buildid=ICGHskqP4jQ~ ( 2 files)

         Install guide:

                   2, Using rpm -Uvh --nodeps *.rpm command to install both attached patches at 2 servers.

                   3, Using date –R to see if it’s changed successfully
