Chapter 13. Changing the system date and time
The following procedure describes the steps required for changing the system's
date, time and time zone. In a two-node cluster, each node must be changed
separately. When both nodes are running, there is only a need to run this from one
of the nodes. The change will take effect on both.
About this task
After configuring the ProtecTIER server, you can change the system's date, time
and time zone and add timeservers to the system.
Attention:
If you are running the setClock configuration to change the date and
time, IBM recommends that once you complete the procedure, you commit the
changes and exit the session. Do not proceed to setting a different timezone in the
same session. If you are planning to run both the Set date & time and Set Timezone
operations, first set the timezone, and then the date and time. This is
recommended because the timezone settings affect the time that is displayed.
Procedure
1.
If you are not already connected to a node, plug a USB keyboard and monitor
into the back of the server.
2.
Log in to the server with the username root and password admin.
3.
Access the /opt/dtc/install directory by typing the command:
cd /opt/dtc/install/
<Enter>
4.
Type the following command to begin the set clock configuration:
./ptconfig -setClock
<Enter>
As the procedure runs, the following is displayed:
Date, Time, Timezone & Timeserver(s) configuration
==================================================
1. Set date & time
2. Set Timezone
3. Set Timeserver(s)
c. Commit changes and exit
q. Exit without committing changes
