timestamps and timezones

Why does Splunk not transform the event's timestamp to my browser's locale? Am I wrong that this is not the case?

Hello,
You need to change your timezone to appropriate option under access control->Users->Your_User.

You will see start seeing the events adjusted according to your timezone.

Thanks

i would like to believe that splunk does it for you. It depends what is your system timezone configured for! And if you are accessing a remote link then it would take that system's default timezone.

And even more wow: timezone = jstz.determine_timezone()

Splunk can't simply do that?
