ASAP 3.1 Server Manual

HP NonStop ASAP Server Manual Page 273 of 360
If Monitor and Collect are in the same node, this option has no meaning. For this
SYNC option to function, the Monitor must be accessed by someone with a super-
group user ID. For more information, see SYNCSLOW ON | OFF.
minutes
specifies the number of minutes past midnight.
The default number of minutes is 0.
frequency
specifies the number of times the Monitor’s system clock is automatically
synchronized to the node’s system clock. The default frequency is 0.
The default is 0,0.
Examples
This example synchronizes all the nodes in the network twice a day, first at 2:30
a.m. and again at 5:00 a.m.
+SET SYNC 150, 2
+STARTUP \*
SYNCSLOW ON | OFF
defines the clock synchronization algorithm. The SET SYNC option controls when
time-of-day synchronization occurs. The SET SYNCSLOW option controls the
algorithm. You can manually correct the time on any node with the TACL SETTIME
command, regardless of how SET SYNC or SYNCSLOW is set.
ON
adjusts the time-of-day clock on remote ASAP nodes very slowly to avoid
sudden time of day changes. This algorithm slowly adjusts the time of day
regardless of the time difference between the correct time on the central ASAP
Collect node and the incorrect time on the Remote node.
OFF
causes the ASAP clock synchronization algorithm to make instantaneous time
changes if the time difference between the central Collect node and the
Remote node is greater than two minutes. Uses slow synchronization only if
the time difference between the central Collect node and the Remote node is
less than two minutes.
The default is OFF
