Exchange 2013 mailbox migrations reporting wrong time stamp and /or timezone

Exchange 2013 mailbox migrations reporting wrong time stamp and /or timezone (Solved)


The migrationbatch showed that it started 4 hours from when it was actually started.  I immediately wondered if it was normal because the time was right, but in UTC, not my timezone which is Eastern, but I distinctly recall that this should show my local time instead. 
In digging I found that if in powershell I issue a get-migrationbatch | fl * it lists the various time properties, including properties specific to UTC.  The interesting part though, they were one in the same.  See example below.
I went and checked my dev exchange environment and it's reporting this as expected.  Further if I, personally, issue a migration in production it shows as expected as well.  It seems to have only happened to my customer.  I even had him do another migration with the same result.  I had him check his local timezone on his machine that issued the request and his timezone is set to Eastern.
I'm completely stumped as to what could cause this. 


Solution:

1. set-mailboxregionalconfiguration -identity administrator@yourdomain.com -TimeZone "Your Time Zone"
