Display field for the "Selected backup" field that calculates Date/Time according to the servers time zone

Domino Backup db. the "Restore Job" form.


The Selected backup field should display the date and time in the same time zone your server is in and not only in GMT.

Could be done by a display field that calculates the selected GMT Date/Time according to the servers time zone.

    The GMT time for the backup itself is implemented on purpose.
    The select UI allows to select the backup in user/server time and finds the right backup for you.


    Why is that not sufficient and why do you need the time in the server timezone?
    The display field cannot be the server time.
    Adding a display field in user/admin time in the client would work.
    But I don't see why this would be useful.

    The UI takes care of selecting the right UI based on the first time/date you enter to pick the right backup to restore.

    The acutually backup time in GMT is more an internal value to identify backups consistently.

    You might want to raise an issue here --> https://github.com/HCL-TECH-SOFTWARE/domino-backup to discuss this in more detail.
    The community project is intended to help with integrations and also to better understand the functionality and how it can be used.
