Command History
Usage Guidelines
To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes the proper
task IDs.
Generally, if the system is synchronized by a valid outside timing mechanism, such as a Network Time
Protocol (NTP) clock source, or if you have a networking device with calendar capability, you need not
set the software clock. Use the
clock set
command if no other time sources are available. The time
specified in this command is relative to the configured time zone.
