How to change the "Last Report Time" format in my own Web Reports?

(imported topic written by SystemAdmin)

I created a Computer Properties report with “Last Report Time” property, the report content was:

Computer Name Last Report Time

(2 computers found. Displaying computers 1-2)

K-NADOO Thu, 28 Aug 2008 07:21:58 +0000

As you can see, the format of the time is like “28 Aug 2008 07:21:58 +0000”, it is a GMT time.

How can I change it to “2008-08-28 10:21:58”, which with a specified time zone +3?

Thanks!

Hi nadoo,

The Web Reports “last report time” defaults to GMT because it doesn’t know what the timezone of the viewers of web reports (unlike the console that runs as an application and reads from the local system properties). We have an open request to implement a manual override for customers to set, but it is not in the current version.

OK, thanks for your reply, Ben.

I’ve created a new property in the BES Console to get the time string.

By the way, besides timezone, I think it should be better if we can also set the format of it.

Thanks,

nadoo
