System clock
OS10 uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to synchronize the system clock with a time-serving host. When you enable NTP,
it overwrites the system time.
If you do not use NTP, set the system time and time zone after you disable NTP. Use the clock set command to set the
current system time and date. The hardware-based real-clock time (RTC) resets to the new system time.
Some geographical locations in the world observe the daylight savings time (DST) during summer months. To configure
DST, use the clock timezone {standard-timezone standard-timezone-name | {timezone-string Hours
Minutes}} command. OS10 supports the DST feature only for standard time zones.
OS10 offers the user-defined time zone configuration only for backward compatibility. If you choose to configure a user-defined
time zone, you must configure the hour and minute offset from UTC. User-defined time zones do not support DST.
NOTE: Dell Technologies recommends configuring a standard time zone supported in Linux. Use the ? character for
command completion to view a list of supported standard time zones.
Configuration notes
If you configure a time zone for which DST is applicable and you want to downgrade OS10 to an earlier release that does not
support DST changes, do one of the following:
● Before you downgrade, disable the DST configuration or update the setting using the clock timezone command to
specify only the local time zone.
● After the downgrade is complete, ignore the CLI error and reconfigure the setting using the clock timezone command to
specify only the local time zone.
Configure system time and date
● Enter the time and date in EXEC mode.
clock set time year-month-day
○ time — Enter the time in the format hour:minute:second, where hour is 1 to 24; minute is 1 to 60; second is 1
to 60. For example, enter 5:15 PM as 17:15:00.
○ year-month-day — Enter the date in the format YYYY-MM-DD, where YYYY is a four-digit year, such as 2016; MM is
a month from 1 to 12; DD is a day from 1 to 31.
● Enter the time zone in CONFIGURATION mode.
clock timezone {standard-timezone standard-timezone-name | {timezone-string Hours
Minutes}}
○ standard-timezone-name — Enter a standard time zone name that is supported in Linux. To view a list of
supported standard time zone names, see the Time zones and UTC offset reference section.
○ timezone-string — Enter the name of the time zone.
○ hours — Enter the hour offset from UTC, ranging from -23 to 23.
○ minutes - Enter the minute offset from UTC, ranging from 0 to 59.
