Timezones
A cloud server's hardware clock is set to a specific timezone. Some operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows, rely on the hardware clock being in local time. Others, such as Linux, use a default setting of a hardware clock in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The server's timezone setting can be adjusted to a local time if required by the operating system.
