### Time zone handling <a id="timeperiods-timezones"></a>
Icinga 2 takes the OS' time zone including DST changes into account.
Times inside DST changes are interpreted as before the DST changes.
I.e. for the time zone Europe/Berlin:
* On 2020-10-25 03:00 CEST the time jumps back to 02:00 CET.
For Icinga 02:30 means 02:30 CEST.
* On 2021-02-28 02:00 CET the time jumps forward to 03:00 CEST.
For Icinga (the actually not existing) 02:30 refers to CET
and effectively means 03:30 CEST.
