Since you're in CEST time zone, the date/time picker for selecting retirement date & time will be showing times in that zone. 17:00 CEST is 15:00 UTC, correct? Closing with NOTABUG.

Yes, I am in CEST time zone, but I specifically said that I configured Time Zone of CFME appliance to UTC. Therefore it should not care where I am physically. I don't agree with closing this as NOTABUG. If the datetime picker is really indeed in CEST, it contradicts with appliance configuration. A while ago, I had a bz saying the exact opposite of what you're requesting here: I want the datepicker to display my local time, not UTC. Obviously, I cannot accommodate both requests, can I? Besides, appliance configuration is immaterial here: 1. you're retiring a virtual machine, not an appliance 2. the retirement time & date stored with given virtual machine does not contain any timezone information. Appliance always assumes UTC when reading this information. If you want to be able to select retirement time, date & *timezone* -> file an RFE. I have two additional questions: 1) From where does CFME get information about my time zone (CEST)? Time zone specified in Configuration is UTC and timezone of the appliance VM is EDT. How exactly does it know that I am in CEST. 2) If datetime picker is indeed displayed in CEST, should not this information be exposed to the user. From the user's point of view, such information is *by no means obvious*. The datepicker component is rendered by your browser and your browser does know your timezone. As I wrote before, a nice solution to all confusion here would be the ability to select date, time & timezone for retirement. But that's really an RFE.
