Default timezone used by Couchbase Server

Couchbase Server
1

Hi!
What timezone is used by the Couchbase Server by default? I’m using docker container to run it. Is it based on the host system time? Is there any way to set it manually?
Cheers, Maciej

Already found it’s UTC. Is there any way to change it?

why would you want to change it?

To match the rest of the system for example (if the system works in a specific, non-UTC timezone). It’s easier to keep everything in one timezone. Just to simplify. I guess I could extend the base image by changing the system timezone and then dpkg reconfigure tzdata. Am I right? Anyway I fixed my problem by changing the timezone everywhere in the system to UTC but I wasn’t sure if Couchbase has the same setup.

@drigby I know it perfectly :wink:
