Syncing the host machine time into container

[Raghu M N]

I need to setup the time inside the container same as host machine time? need any suggestion

[Sebastiaan van Stijn]

For production scenarios, it's generally recommended to use the default (UTC) timezone

in containers (and hosts). Doing so makes all containers use the same timezone,

regardless of where they're running. This makes it easier to compare events in a

distributed system (where containers may be running in different areas).

That said, there's a proposal to make reading logs for those containers easier

(allowing users to convert the UTC timezone used in the logs to their local

machine's timezone when viewing them); see https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/33778

For other scenarios (local development), you can find some examples to set the

container's timezone in this ticket: https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/12084

Hope this helps!
