I've got a server that's in MST
IM
besides the obvious issue, with the server not running in UTC, I'm trying to correlate an Event in Moira with the server logs
AB
Yes, moira in web shows you event times in local browser time
AB
it does not depend on how the location is configured in moira
IM
sooo..if a server sends time in MST, Moira will convert it to UTC?
IM
correction
IM
sends an event in MST
AB
but you may have problems if the services from which you collect metrics do not log in at UTC =(
IM
oh yeah
IM
I've been fighting that battle forever
AB
it seems this is not a good pattern
AB
I'm right @beevee_ru?
IM
the locality setting in Moira, does that mean that incoming timestamps get converted to UTC?
AB
you will have many problems if metrics are logged in different time zones and not only in moira

no, it is does not convered
AB
moira just dont know about locations in your metrics
IM
correct
IM
so what role does the locality setting play?
AB
location settings always get your timestamp and think that it is UTC
