Time server

To ensure that some of the features of IBM® Operations Analytics - Log Analysis work correctly, you need to set up a time keeping server.

Some features of IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis use relative time such as days, weeks, or months. This time is calculated from the time on the server on which IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis is installed. To ensure that these features generate correct results, you must ensure that the time on the IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis server is correct. You can use a time server to synchronize the time on the IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis server with the correct time. You must do this before you install IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis.
