Time zone settings per ADOMs/Reports

This information is also available in the FortiAnalyzer 7.4 Administration Guide: Creating ADOMs Report Settings tab

To allow a more granular reporting experience for Global deployment, different timezones can be configured on each ADOM/Report.

The Default time zone used for this setting is the time zone set for the FortiAnalyzer.

To configure the time zone for an ADOM:

1. Go to System Settings > ADOMs.

2. Edit or create a new ADOM.

3. From the Time Zone dropdown, select a time zone for the ADOM.

   This time zone will be used when displaying data in Log View and FortiView for this ADOM.

   

4. Click OK to save.

Example:

In this example, the system time zone is (GMT-8:00) Pacific Time, which is used by the root ADOM. The admin creates a new adom (ADOM1) and sets the time zone to (GMT-5:00) Eastern Time:

In the root ADOM, the Log View, FortiView, and Generated Reports panes are displayed according to the default system time zone: (GMT-8:00) Pacific Time.

For example, the admin is reviewing the panes below at approximately 16:30 Pacific Time.

In ADOM1, the Log View, FortiView, and Generated Reports panes are displayed according the ADOM's specified time zone: (GMT-5:00) Eastern Time.

For example, the admin is reviewing the panes below at approximately 16:40 Pacific Time (19:40 Eastern Time).

To configure the time zone for a report:

1. Go to Reports > Report Definitions > All Reports.

2. Double-click the report, or right-click the report and select Edit.

3. Go to the Settings tab.

4. From the Time Zone dropdown, select a time zone to use for data in the report output.

   

5. Click Apply to save.
