Setting your time zone

You can set the time zone you want the application to use to display your data. The time zone setting affects the display throughout the application. It does not affect the data.

For creation of Projection Models, Playback files, and Calendar events, the application uses the local time zone of your Db2 regardless of your selection here. 

For database backup, database cleanup, and generating analytics data , the application uses the local time zone where your AMI Manager is installed.

The current time is displayed on the clock at the bottom of the application window, in GMT and in your selected time zone. If you select GMT, only GMT is displayed.

To minimize the clock, hover over the clock and click the - button that appears.

To restore the clock to its full size, click .
