Information Server log messages Date/Timestamps appearing in Systemout.log are not in synch with Operating System Date/Timestamp

Troubleshooting


Problem

Messages being logged in the Websphere Application Server Systemout.log when using Information Server does not match Operating system clock.

Symptom

When messages are logged in the WebSphere Application Server Systemout.log they are not in synch with the operating system clock. For example you may find a time difference between the timestamp that appears in the WebSphere Application Server Systemout.log compared to the actual operating system clock due to the different timezones configured at the operating system level compared to the WebSphere Application Server timezone configuration.
