Fix MinIO Time Sync Issues
If the time of MinIO does not match the local time, you can try the following solutions:
- Check the server’s time zone settings: Make sure that the server’s time zone is set correctly and matches the local time zone. You can use the command “date” to view the server’s current time and time zone settings.
- Synchronize server time: The issue of time inconsistency can be solved by synchronizing the server time with a time server. The specific method depends on the server’s operating system, and can be done by searching for the time synchronization methods for the relevant operating system.
- Check the time settings in the MinIO configuration file: The MinIO configuration file (~/.minio/config.json) may contain time-related settings, such as the utc field. You can try to modify these configuration options to synchronize MinIO with the local time.
- Restart the MinIO service: After making changes to time-related configurations, a restart of the MinIO service is required for the changes to take effect.
- Enable NTP service: If the server’s operating system supports it, you can configure the NTP (Network Time Protocol) service to synchronize the server’s time. NTP service can automatically retrieve time information from trusted time servers and synchronize it locally.
If the above methods don’t work, you can try reaching out to MinIO official support or the community for help.
