Configuring the management hub date and time
Review these considerations to help you configure the date and time for Lenovo XClarity Management Hub 2.0.
To configure network settings, click Date and time from the context menu on the Administration view.
Time zone
Choose the time zone where the management-hub host is located.
If the selected time zone observes daylight saving time (DST), the time is automatically adjusted for DST.
NTP server
You must set up at least one and up to four Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers to synchronize the timestamps between the management hub, the XClarity One portal, and all managed devices.
Attention
The management hub and its host must be set to synchronize to the same time source to prevent inadvertent time mis-synchronization. Typically, the host is configured to have its virtual appliances time-sync to it. If the management hub is set to synchronize to a different source than its host, you must disable the host time synchronization between the management hub and its host.
Each NTP server must be accessible over the network.
If you change the time on the NTP server, it might take a while for the management hub to synchronize with the new time.
