Change timezone of GKE node ?

[vanlong]

I am having a problem when trying to change my node timezone (from UTC to UTC + 7), but I did not see any where to perform this action, did I miss something ?

Hi,

Why do you need to change your nodes TZ ?

[vanlong]

cause my pod gets TZ from my node's TZ configuration, how can I solve it ?

There is no way in GKE to change nodes timezone, you can change it at the pod level using environment variables. something like

env:

            - name: TZ

              value: Europe/Warsaw

If you add this to your pod or deployment it might work depending on the OS using to build your container image
