Date and time settings
The Product Name maintains the current date and time inside a battery-backed real-time clock
(RTC) circuit. Date and time are used for logging events. Switch operation does not depend on the
date and time; a Product Name with an incorrect date and time value still functions properly.
However, because the date and time are used for logging, error detection, and troubleshooting, you
should set them correctly.
Time zones
You can set the time zone for the switch by name. You can also set country, city or time zone
parameters.
If the time zone is not set with the new options, the switch retains the offset time zone settings. The
tsTimeZone command includes an option to revert to the prior time zone format. For more
information about the
--
old option, see the Fabric OS Command Reference .
You can set the time zone for a switch using the tsTimeZone command. The tsTimeZone command
allows you to perform the following tasks:
•
Display all of the time zones supported in the firmware
•
Set the time zone based on a country and city combination or based on a time zone ID such as
PST
The time zone setting has the following characteristics:
•
You can view the time zone settings. However, only those with administrative permissions can
set the time zones.
•
The tsTimeZone setting automatically adjusts for Daylight Savings Time.
•
Changing the time zone on a switch updates the local time zone setup and is reflected in local
time calculations.
•
By default, all switches are in the GMT time zone (0,0). If all switches in a fabric are in one time
zone, it is possible for you to keep the time zone setup at the default setting.
•
System services that have already started will reflect the time zone changes only after the next
reboot.
•
Time zone settings persist across failover for high availability.
