Use the Date and Time panel to change the storage system date and time that appears in the banner. It is important to set the date and time so that entries in system logs and notifications have correct time stamps.
You can set the date and time manually or configure the system to use NTP to obtain them from an available network-attached server. Using NTP allows multiple storage devices, hosts, log files, and so forth to be synchronized. The NTP value can be an IPv4 address, IPv6 address, or FQDN. If NTP is enabled but no NTP server is present, the date and time are maintained as if NTP was not enabled.
NTP server time is provided in the UTC time scale, which provides several options:
To synchronize the times and logs between storage devices installed in multiple time zones, set all the storage devices to use UTC.
To use the local time for a storage device, set its time zone offset.
If a time server can provide local time rather than UTC, configure the storage devices to use that time server, with no further time adjustment.
Whether NTP is enabled or disabled, the storage system does not automatically make time adjustments for Daylight Saving Time. You must make such adjustments manually.

Obtain the date and time from an NTP server
Perform one of the following to access the Date and Time options:
In the Home topic, select Action > System Settings.
In the System topic, select Action > System Settings.
In the banner, click the System Date/Time Bar panel and select Set Date and Time.
In the Welcome panel, select System Settings > Date and Time.
Select the Network Time Protocol (NTP) check box.
Perform one of the following:
To have the system retrieve time values from a specific NTP server, enter its IP address in the NTP Server Address field.
To have the system listen for time messages sent by an NTP server in broadcast mode, clear the NTP Server Address field.
In the NTP Time Zone Offset field, enter the time zone as an offset in hours, and optionally minutes, from UTC. For
example: the Pacific Time Zone offset is -8 during Pacific Standard Time or -7 during Pacific Daylight Time and the
offset for Bangalore, India is +5:30.
