NTP Time Clock wont allow Manual

Hi,

1. For some reason when setting NTP clock keeps pulling back UTC?! How do I change it to pull correct clocks?

or

2. If set it to Manual and save, says it saved but will not update and keep the settings, keeps going back to NTP clock. Have disabled and stopped the service still keeps happening.

ESXi 6.7

First of all, you should know there is no timezone setting for the ESXi host and it used the UTC only. You can set the time manually or configure an NTP server.

I wrote a post about Time settings of the ESXi, I hope it can be helpful for you:

Time differentiate between ESXi host & NTP Server
