You might want to post an answer that explains what you did for posteriority, so you can close this question (and also, get some points, as a side bonus). I still maintain, not using a timezone but UTC is probably the right choice, but you do you. | |
| Apr 18, 2023 at 9:31 | comment | added | Marcus Müller | @RichardRublev just to repeat that: "Berlin time zone" is not the same as "UTC +2". It currently has that value, for a few more months. Berlin time zone is, as guessed above, central european time zone with daylight savings incorporated. Don't confuse UTC offsets with time zones – simply different things. | |

| Apr 18, 2023 at 9:29 | comment | added | Marcus Müller | You would want to use tzselect on any machine to figure out the correct time zone string for you. But, what I'd consider a fair warning: Honestly, don't use anything but "UTC" on a server machine, especially not if its responsible for spawning containers of all purposes. You can still set a timezone for any service within if you need that for some reason, but localizing the orchestrator's time zone sounds more trouble than it's worth! See this question for discussions on that. | |

| Apr 18, 2023 at 9:24 | comment | added | Marcus Müller | there's nothing wrong with github right now for me, so hopefully that will be transient. Anyways, nope, that's not a time zone, but an offset. What is the actual timezone you want to be in? "Europe" spans from the spanish time zone to the moscow time zone, at the very least. My guess is you want to actually say "I'm on central european time, including daylight savings time". Then, the clock will still be right in fall, when we turn back our wall clocks. | |
