MySQL is available without a root password. The password is stored in the /root/.my.cnf configuration file. By default, Zabbix appliance uses the UTC timezone. If you need to change it, edit date.timezone PHP configuration directive in /etc/php.d/99-zabbix.ini and restart the php-fpm process: systemctl restart php-fpm.
