Closed as program error.
Error description
Performance data for a customer's device and its internal resources is not displaying consistently or correctly for the pre-set time ranges of 1 hour, 6 hours, and 12 hours. The problem is related to a time zone mismatch between the device and the user's browser. When the URL for a popup window is formed, it is based on the user's current time zone, without considering the device's time zone. The backend stores data according to the device's time zone, so if there is a time zone difference, the timestamps in the URL request may not match the device's timestamps, causing data retrieval issues.
Local fix
The host running the customer's browser used to access the Storage Insights and the customer's storage device should be in the same time zone.
