Dear Team,

Good Evening !!

I need help/Support to find the Root cause for an Issue about timezone.

Issue Description :
We have a Java entryPoint argument :
-Duser.timezone=Asia/Tokyo. - To get Japan time in the log (UTC time + 9)

Till now It was giving correct time in our log.
Recently we added another container for flink, and there are no timezone argument in flink docker compose entry.

We are observing, it is adding everywhere +9 to the time

Usually you can set the timezone for Docker Linux containers via env:

services:
  traefik:
    image: traefik:v2.10
    hostname: '{{.Node.Hostname}}'
    environment:
      - TZ=Europe/Berlin
    …
