Can I update timezone of NiFi without restarting it?

Hi,

I started my Linux box with UTC as  timezone and started NiFi using UTC.
Later on I switched the timezone to, say, EST, but couldn't find a way to
update NiFi with the new timezone unless I restarted it. How can I update
the timezone in NiFi without restarting the service?

Thanks,
Jeff

Jeff,

We don't have any support for altering the timezone NiFi honors while
it is running at this time.  Time information is fairly important to a
number of low level mechanisms.

Thanks
Joe
