timezone for timeperiod

[Hu Thomas Pan]

It is a unix box supporting gmt. However, when I define the time range for
timeperiod, such as 08:00-21:00, Nagios treats it as local time as far as I
can see.

The question is that if a monitoring system contains Nagios servers across
the world, how could they sync on the time on configuration? I don't want to
use multiple configuration files for different time zones.

For the notification part, I can understand since there is unix time stamp
($TIMET$) attached, which is GMT time.


Best,
Thomas

What's the timezone on your computer?  gmt or local?

I suspect there is a distinct correlation.
