[jira] [Commented] (YARN-570) Time strings are formated in different timezone

["Jason Lowe (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-570?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14990603#comment-14990603 ] 

Jason Lowe commented on YARN-570:
---------------------------------

So this changed timestamps to be rendered unconditionally in local time?  That's unfortunate.  See [~aw]'s comment in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2348?focusedCommentId=14073218&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-14073218.  Unfortunately local timezone isn't always the right thing to do because the timestamps of the log files for tasks will _not_ be the local timezone of the browser when running jobs in a distant colo.  So this change makes it worse for users that are lining up events based on what they see in the UI with what they see in the logs.

This minimally should have been configurable.  Filed YARN-4332 to either revert this change or make it configurable.

> Time strings on different page are displayed in different timezone.
> If it is rendered by renderHadoopDate() in yarn.dt.plugins.js, it appears as "Wed, 10 Apr 2013 08:29:56 GMT"
> If it is formatted by format() in yarn.util.Times, it appears as "10-Apr-2013 16:29:56"
> Same value, but different timezone.
