clock command

This command configures and displays the management-module clock settings.

Table 1. clock command
Function	What it does	Command	Valid targets
Display management module clock information	Displays the following information for the management module clock: current date and time GMT (Greenwich-Mean Time) offset daylight-savings time setting	`clock`	`-T system:mm[x]` where x is the primary management-module bay number.
Set management module date	Sets the date for the management module clock.	`clock -d` date where date is the current calendar date in mm/dd/yyyy format. The month and day can be input as single digits. The year must be a four-digit number between 2000 and 2089, inclusive. Command use restricted (see Commands and user authority).	`-T system:mm[x]` where x is the primary management-module bay number.
Set management module time	Sets the time for the management module clock.	`clock -t` time where time is the current time in 24-hour hh:mm:ss format. The hours, minutes, and seconds can all be input as single digits. Command use restricted (see Commands and user authority).	`-T system:mm[x]` where x is the primary management-module bay number.
Set management module clock GMT offset	Sets the time for the management module clock.	`clock -g` offset where offset is a value between +12 and -12, in hours and minutes. Positive offsets are entered using the form: GMT+hh:mm, +hh:mm, +hh, hh:mm, or hh; where, the hours and minutes can be input as single digits. Negative offsets are entered using the form: GMT-hh:mm, -hh:mm, or -hh; where, the hours and minutes can be input as single digits. Valid offsets are: `GMT+0:00` `GMT+1:00` `GMT+2:00` `GMT+3:00` `GMT+3:30` `GMT+4:00` `GMT+4:30` `GMT+5:00` `GMT+5:30` `GMT+6:00` `GMT+7:00` `GMT+8:00` `GMT+9:00` `GMT+9:30` `GMT+10:00` `GMT+11:00` `GMT+12:00` `GMT-12:00` `GMT-11:00` `GMT-10:00` `GMT-9:00` `GMT-8:00` `GMT-7:00` `GMT-6:00` `GMT-5:00` `GMT-4:00` `GMT-3:30` `GMT-3:00` `GMT-2:00` `GMT-1:00` (continued on next page)	`-T system:mm[x]` where x is the primary management-module bay number.
Set management module clock GMT offset (continued)		For some time zones that use daylight-savings time (GMT +10, +2, -5, -6, -7, -8, -9), a special value for the `-dst` option must be specified to identify the correct daylight-savings time scheme to use in that time zone. Command use restricted (see Commands and user authority).
Set management module clock daylight-savings time mode	Sets the daylight-savings time mode for the management module clock.	`clock -dst` dst_mode where dst_mode is one of the following: `off` `on` for `GMT+2:00`: `off` `ee` (Eastern Europe) `gtb` (Great Britain) `egt` (Egypt) `fle` (Finland) for GMT+10:00: `off` `ea` (Eastern Australia) `tas` (Tasmania) `vlad` (Vladivostok) for GMT-9:00 to GMT-5:00: `off` `uc` (United States and Canada) `other` (other locations) for GMT-4:00: `off` `can` (Canada) `other` (other locations) Daylight-savings time is not observed in the following GMT offsets: GMT+4:00, GMT+4:30, GMT+5:30, GMT+6:00, GMT+7:00, GMT+8:00, GMT+11:00, GMT-12:00, GMT-11:00, and GMT-10:00. Command use restricted (see Commands and user authority).	`-T system:mm[x]` where x is the primary management-module bay number.

Example: To set the management-module for operation in the US Eastern time zone in compliance with new daylight-savings time rules, while management module 1 is set as the persistent command environment, at the system:mm[1]> prompt, type

                  clock -g +5 -dst uc

To display the clock information for the primary management module, while management module 1 is set as the persistent command environment, at the system:mm[1]> prompt, type

                  clock

The following example shows the information that is returned from these two commands:

               system:mm[1]> clock -g +5 -dst uc
OK
system:mm[1]> clock
10/17/2006 02:27:11 GMT+5:00 dst uc
system:mm[1]>
