The timestamp of log is 2011-06-02 06:06:45 , splunk will resolve it as 11-6-2 AM 06:06:45.000. But this is UTC time. now I wanna convert to local time as +8 hour in Asia/Taipei timezone and add

[tcp::port] || [sourcetype] || [host::$hostname]
TZ = Asia/Taipei

either in inputs.conf and apps/$appsname/local/props.conf. But it seems not to work. anything i set wrong? thanks a lot!!

TZ settings will need to go into the props.conf on the parsing server. Reference this in order to figure out where to make the config change, as it depends on your architecture: http://www.splunk.com/wiki/Where_do_I_configure_my_Splunk_settings%3F
