Istruzioni

Use the following procedure to set the device date and time.
  • Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role.
  • Enter the date command, using the following syntax:
date [MMDDhhmm[YY]]
  • The values represent the following:
    • MM is the month; valid values are 01 through 12.
    • DD is the date; valid values are 01 through 31.
    • hh is the hour; valid values are 00 through 23.
    • mm is minutes; valid values are 00 through 59.
    • YY is the year; valid values are 00 through 37 and 70 through 99 (year values from 70 through 99 are interpreted as 1970 through 1999; year values from 00 through 37 are interpreted as 2000 through 2037).
    The following example shows how to set a date. 
    switch:admin> date
Fri Feb 9 17:01:48 UTC 2019
switch:admin> date "0204101020"
Mon Feb 4 10:10:00 UTC 2020
    A system-generated message appears, if you try to change the date within 64 seconds of a previous change. 
    Date change within 64 seconds from previous change is not allowed
     
    Note: From Fabric OS 9.1.0, the system is monitored and protected from disproportionate time changes. The date cannot be changed beyond plus or minus 7 days using the date command. This function is called Restrictive Time Adjustment (RTA). 

    Setting the Time Zone
    The following procedure describes how to set the time zone for a switch. You must perform the procedure on all switches for which the time zone must be set. However, you must set the time zone only once on each switch because the value is written to nonvolatile memory.
    • Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role and with the chassis-role permission.
    • Use the tsTimeZone command to set the time zone for the device.
    • Enter tsTimeZone with no parameters to display the current time zone setting.
    • Enter the --interactive option to list all the time zones supported by the firmware.
    • Enter timeZone_fmt to set the time zone by country or region or city or by time zone ID, such as Pacific Standard Time (PST).
    The following example displays and changes the time zone to US Central. 
    switch:admin> tstimezone 
 
Time Zone : US/Pacific
switch:admin> tstimezone US/Central
System Time Zone change will take effect at next reboot. On Chassis, reboot both CPs simultaneously.
 
switch:admin> tstimezone
 
Time Zone : US/Central 

    Setting the Time Zone Interactively
    Use the following procedure to set the current time zone to the time zone in Africa using interactive mode:
    • Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role and with the chassis-role permission.
    • Enter the tsTimeZone --interactive command.
    You are prompted to select a general location.
    • Enter the appropriate number or press Ctrl-D to quit.
    • Enter the appropriate number when prompted to specify the time zone region. Enter 1 to confirm or 2 to restart the time zone selection again. At any time, use Ctrl-D to quit.
    Note: The system Time Zone change takes effect at the next reboot. On Chassis, reboot both CPs simultaneously.
