Thank you for looking into this,

Here is mentioned info:

docker inspect for watcher_api container (binds for localtime and timezone
are identical for all containers):

        "HostConfig": {
            "Binds": [
                "/etc/kolla/watcher-api/:/var/lib/kolla/config_files/:ro",
                "/etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro",
                "/etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro",
                "kolla_logs:/var/log/kolla/:rw"
            ],

If this could help:
Time zone on debian host was setup during OS installation
Base OS is synced to NTP server with systemd-timesyncd

Best regards,
Stefan
