Time incorrect

Overview

The appliance or Swivel logs display the incorrect time.

Prerequisites

Swivel 3.x

Symptoms

Logs may display an incorrect time.

Solution

Time on an appliance is based upon the timezone. The appliance is shipped set to GMT. The Swivel Administration console log viewer automatically adjusts to the client time, so events in the log will be shown as local time, not appliance time. This may mean that log data when viewed on systems in differing timezones, the log data may display differing times.

If time is drifting use Network Time Protocol, see NTP servers
