vCenter Server Appliance backups initiate at UTC time instead of the configured local time

  Symptoms

  • vCenter Server Appliance backup records visible on the VAMI page show backups have been taken according to UTC time.
  • The appliance timezone has been modified to another such as CET+2.
  • The appliance has been patched from an older version.
Cause
During patching of the vCenter Server appliance, an rpm file which executes modifies the /etc/localtime file contents to point to UTC.
Resolution
VMware is aware of this issue and working to resolve it in a future release.
Workaround
1. Set the timezone to UTC
2. Set it back to the desired timezone.

Cloning and converting virtual machine disks with vmkfstools

 Purpose This article provides information and instructions on the use of the vmkfstools command to convert virtual machine disks from one type to another. Resolution The vmkfstools command offers the ability to clone virtual machine content and also convert from one virtual machine disk ( .vmdk ) format into another. Note : The host operating system chosen to perform the conversion may not necessarily support running of virtual machines via the output format defined. vmkfstools maintains the possibility of exporting virtual disks for use in other VMware products which support alternative disk formats.
