IT39509: INCORRECT TIMESTAMPS IN EMAILED PERFORMANCE REPORT

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Storage Insights reports that include Time as a field have
  incorrect timestamps when the report is emailed.  The timestamps
  are off by 12 hours such that 09:00:00 is displayed as 21:00:00.
   This is most obvious when comparing the latest timestamps for a
  report that just ran.  If running in the morning, the latest
  timestamps will be in the future.  This occurs with Send now and
  any of the other schedule frequencies.
  
  When viewing the report in Storage Insights, the timestamps are
  displayed correctly.
