Hi Sultan Ahamar,

in MSF-OCBA our servers in field have the default timezone of the region.
We decide to do that because we have some scripts (like backups and,
sometimes, server reboots) that must be run at night. In this way we can
have the same server configuration for all of them.

But next year we plan to use metadata sync functionality, and metadata
versions have a timestamp generated locally that could become an issue with
different timezones... We need to assess that yet

Regards,
Víctor
