About adjusting time zones in the NetBackup Administration console
Sites in a geographically dispersed NetBackup configuration may need to adjust the time zone in the NetBackup Administration Console for administration of remote NetBackup hosts. (A remote NetBackup host may either be the host that is specified in the administration console logon dialog box or one referenced by the File > Change Server capability in the console.)
The default time zone for the console is that of the host on which the console is started, not the host that is specified (if different) in the console logon dialog box.
For backup, restore, or archive operations from within the NetBackup Administration Console or the Backup, Archive, and Restore application when run on a client, set the time zone relative to the NetBackup server from which the client restores files.
Set the time zone in separate instances of the NetBackup Administration Console when servers in different time zones are administered.
For example, open a NetBackup Administration Console to set the time zone for the local server in the Central time zone. To set the time zone for a server in the Pacific time zone as well, open another NetBackup Administration Console.
Change servers (File > Change Server), and then set the time zone for the Pacific time zone server. Doing so changes the time zone for the Central time zone server as well.
To perform a Change Server operation to a media server or client, the media server or client must have a security certificate installed.
