Why is Vertica Management Console reporting my TZ is not set












0















I am experimenting with setting up a Vertica Community Edition (9.2.0-0) cluster using three virtual machines. In the Vertica Management Console, when I enter my IP addresses and ask to "Validate Host" it chugs through and decides that I don't have a TZ variable set.



The error message (complete with their spelling):




Warning:Test: checking environmental variable TZ : WARN 17:
enviornment variable TZ is not set




Except I DO have it set, both for the system and for the dbadmin user.



If I log in as dbadmin, I get:



dbadmin@Ubuntu-14A:~$ echo $TZ
America/New_York


If I log in as root, I get:



root@Ubuntu-14A:~# echo $TZ
America/New_York


Checking for TZ in all the places it would be expected:



dbadmin@Ubuntu-14A:~$ grep TZ /etc/profile
export TZ="America/New_York"
dbadmin@Ubuntu-14A:~$ grep TZ /etc/bashrc
export TZ="America/New_York"
dbadmin@Ubuntu-14A:~$ sudo grep TZ /root/.bashrc
export TZ="America/New_York"
dbadmin@Ubuntu-14A:~$ grep TZ ~dbadmin/.bashrc
export TZ="America/New_York"
dbadmin@Ubuntu-14A:~$ grep TZ ~dbadmin/.profile
export TZ="America/New_York"


Further information:




  • The system is Ubuntu 14.04, the version that supports the (free) Community Edition.

  • Each virtual machine has 4 gig of ram and 32gig of disk space.

  • The virtual machines are running under VirtualBox with the network in NAT Network mode. I have assigned static IP addresses since Vertica seems to want that.

  • I am aware I won't get the performance I would get if I had dedicated servers but my objective at this time is to experiment with the Vertica clustering.


Does anybody have any good suggestions where to look?
