Hello splunkers, I have this search:

index = "sti" sourcetype = "Genera_AVI" | fields _time | head 1 | eval tiempo = strftime(now(),"%H:%M:%S") | table tiempo

now() show following time:

13:36:15

But actually it's 12:36

Is it problem with server hour? Where I change it? I have a cluster indexer

check your account settings for timezone, probably its set to EST and you are in CST zone?

This changed only my account.

Exist a way to change for all users?

@rjfv8205 You can let the users change their own timezones. If you want to forcefully change all users timezones then you need to modify user-prefs.conf for all users. See this link below , may be of help-
