Description Use this command to set the local clock.
Usage Guidelines An active NTP server, if configured, automatically updates and overrides the local clock time.
Network Time Protocol (NTP) commands must be configured on each individual switch if you are in
Standalone mode. This command is not distributed across a cluster. The RBridge ID of the node
should be used to set the clock.
The rbridge-id parameter is supported in Logical chassis cluster mode only.
Examples To set the date and time to March 17, 2010, 15 minutes past noon in Standalone mode or on an
individual node:
switch# clock set 2010-03-17T12:15:00
To set the date and time to March 17, 2010, 15 minutes past noon in Logical chassis cluster mode
for all switches in the cluster:
switch# clock set rbridge-id all 2010-03-17T12:15:00
