Helm install on AWS EKS fails due multiple containers being unable to mount /etc/localtime

@IronCore864 @JorgeGar
The localtime volume makes sense for docker-compose, I believe the helm chart localtime volume was derived from it.
So, yes, we could remove localtime volume if it is not the best practice for helm chart which I'm not an expert by any means, I would concur with whatever you think is the best.😊

I also had issues with the localtime being a hostPath but on the permission side. Kubernetes recommend avoiding the hostPath unless they are completely required: https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/volumes/#hostpath.
@BrookeKatalon could you create a PR with the fix?

[BrookeKatalon]

I tried to push my local issues/134 with the workaround/fix but I get an error:

Are you trying to push from the very same repo?
If so, that's the issue.
The process should be to fork the repo, and then from the forked one, you create the branch, work on it and push it to your branch. Later you can create the PR from the forked repo branch to the main repo. https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request-from-a-fork.

Having said that... If you're already doing, then I don't know what's going on 😄

[BrookeKatalon]

D'oh! You can tell I work on internal repos only. Forked and PR created

Is it possible to remove the localtime volume mount?

If not, is it possible to create a configmap containing the value and mount the configmap instead of a hostpath?

If we could pass the localtime as an env variable or configmap as @IronCore864 mentioned, that would be the best option.
