I am not absolutely sure I understand if you want to change the setting of the server for future entries to the database, or if you want to update the current values in your database.

If it is the latter, changing your server settings will not effect the current records in the database. If you want to change the values of the existing fields, you can do that with an MySQL command like:

 update `table` set created_at = (SELECT created_at) + INTERVAL 2 HOUR;

Where table is the name of the database table and 2 is the offset in hours.
