Description Idith Tal-Kohen 2013-07-16 12:36:14 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #974982 +++

Description of problem:
BZ972739 introduced/correct TZ handling but one cannot define it via rhevm-config without editing engine.properties.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sf18

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rhevm-config -s DefaultWindowsTimeZone="Israel Standard Time"
2.
3.

Actual results:
not possible, rhevm-config does not know the key

Expected results:
push it to engine.properties so rhevm-config can be used to override value for TZs

Ok, is3, included in /etc/ovirt-engine/engine-config/engine-config.properties

Comment 3 Jiri Belka 2013-07-29 08:43:23 UTC
ok, sf19.

But be aware changing TZ in VM properties after a VM is started does not work as one would expect. TZ is changed but the VM's qemu-kvm process still starts with same offset because it is taken from utc_diff column in vm_dynamic table. This is expected behavior for 3.2.

there's also little annoying issue about cached TZ value in client's browser - BZ989396.
