Backup's timestamp does not correct

Major88 — Thu, 27 May 2021 09:58:25 GMT

Hi,

i've a probleme with Simplivity backups, the backup name and timestamp does not corresponding , there is a 6 hours of difference, and real backup time is corresponding to backupname column, but not corresponding to backup rules. And timestamp corrsponding to backup rules but not corrsponding to real backup time.

I verified time setting i vCenter, ESX host, Omnistack VMs all is ok. And i am GMT+2 actualy.

Thanks.

Thanks

cluster 2 x Simplivity 380 G10, oministack 4.1.0, vSphere 7.0, vCenter 7.0

Hello, @Major88 Good day !,

Following are some suggestions to help troubleshoot the issue.

1. Check the backup policy kick start time

Go to HPE SimpliVity Federation
select Backup policies and check the start time
then we can right-click on the VM, check what policies are applied
select policies as per customer requirement
make a note of the backup name, VMname
then monitor the status of the backup

2. The NTP difference | Double Check the following

Vcenter NTP config
Esxi config
and OVC config

3. The time-zone on the OVC might be set to another Zone...

Convert it to GMT+2
