It seems alarm status table uses project or ignition gateway’s time zone. But Journal table uses journal DB’s time zone. And in our case, these two time zones are not the same.  
Is there a way to configure journal table to convert the time zone to gateway time zone or any specific time zone automatically ? We don’t want to mess up the DB settings.  
Thank you.
