Hi all, I am helping manage a multi-machine deployment of ArcGIS Enterprise, and it has come to my attention that the machine hosting Portal is set to UTC, while the others are set to the US East-Coast.  

Anybody know if it is safe to change the Portal machine's timezone to use US East-Coast, for consistency?

Thanks!

Can you get a maintenance window,

take a snapshot of everything,

shutdown all the pieces and start them up fresh

timestamps might be a little off but maybe not if under the covers enterprise is tracking everything in UTC anyway

if nobody has said anything for a long while you are probably fine to go ahead
