Administrator Guide

Date and Time

The Date and Time pane displays the current Mode configured for the DR Series system (Manual or NTP), the current

Time Zone, and the current Date and Time (in mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss format, for example: 12/11/12 14:58:22 PST). The Date

and Time pane title acts as a link to the Date and Time page:

• This page contains a Settings pane that lists the Mode used. The system uses Network Time Protocol (NTP)

servers if the system is part of a workgroup and not joined to an Active Directory Services (ADS) domain. If the

system is joined to an ADS domain, then the NTP servers setting is disabled and the system uses the ADS

domain time. The Settings pane also displays the current Time Zone, and current Date and Time. The Date and

Time page provides the Edit option for changing the date and time settings.

注: Dell recommends using the Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers when the DR Series system is part of a

workgroup and not part of a domain. The NTP time mode is disabled when the DR Series system is joined to an

Active Directory Services (ADS) domain. Any attempt to enable the NTP time mode when you are joined to an ADS

domain displays an error message indicating this is not possible.

Understanding the System Configuration Page Options

The System Configuration page contains three key system options:

• Password Management

• Shutdown

• Reboot

Edit Password

DR Series system

Dell DR Series System Command Line Reference Guide

注: Editing your existing login password is different than resetting your login password. Click Edit Password in the

System Configuration page to edit your login password to reflect any value that meets the system password

requirements (for more information, see Modifying the System Password. Click Reset Password in the Login page

to reset your login password to the system default value, which requires you to provide the service tag for your

system. For more information, see Resetting the Default System Password.

Shutdown

Shutdown—click this option to display the Shutdown System dialog, where you can shut down the DR Series system.

小心: Shutdown powers Off the appliance on which the system software is installed. Once in a powered Off state,

you can power it On at its physical location or using an iDRAC configuration to the system.

Reboot

Reboot—click this option to display the Reboot System dialog, where you can reboot the DR Series system.
