Because when I configure in UTC mode, the time wrong. In localtime the time is correct. My country is Peru (America/Lima GMT-5)
Then the localtime of the user space is not correct configured. First of all the kernelßs system clock is in UTC. Second the user space time (reported by e.f. the command date) is given by the file /etc/localtime which is a symbolic link to one of the zone file below /usr/share/zoneinfo/ which provides the correct teim offset to UTC ... in your case this is America/Lima with UTC-5 *and* it provides the rules used for setting e.g. Daylight Saving Time (DST) Third you can also use the environment variable TZ to override the /etc/localtime by any other zone file below /usr/share/zoneinfo/ E.g. werner@boole:~> TZ=UTC date <--- kernel's clock Fri Sep 27 06:33:44 UTC 2013 werner@boole:~> date <--- User space clock Fri Sep 27 08:33:48 CEST 2013 werner@boole:~> TZ=America/Lima date <--- Overwritten with PET Fri Sep 27 01:34:24 PET 2013 Compare this with http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Configuring_the_clock -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

From the journalctl log:

If the clock in CMOS is in UTC then the kernel's clock is in UTC. If the symbolic link /etc/localtime points to /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Lima the date command should report the correct time that is localtime. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Due to limitations of the other OS, the hardware clock is set to local time, therefore I left the check box "computer clock set to UTC" unchecked on the 2nd installation screen. This setup has worked for many years. With openSUSE 13.1 beta the date command shows a local time 2 hours later then the hardware clock, which would be correct if the hardware clock was set to UTC. When I run the Date and Time module from YaST Control Center the mentioned check box is marked as checked although it was not during installation. When I uncheck this box, the time becomes displayed correctly, but this lasts only to next boot. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Which initrd are you using ... mkinitrd or dracut?
With mkinitrd and changing the CMSO local setting mkinitrd has to be called as well as the CMOS clock should be in localtime.
I don't change this, so my initrd is "default" I assume it will be mkinitrd. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I just ran mkinitrd after turning off UTC in the Date and Time module of YaST, but this did not help. After reboot the displayed time had an offset from the hardware clock again (and also the check box for UTC was marked again in the YaST module). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
