Clock

Use this page to set the local time zone, time, and date.

Select Time Zone

Select the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) offset that corresponds to the time zone where this system is located, and then specify whether you want the system clock to automatically or manually adjust for daylight savings time.

GMT Offset
Specifies the difference in hours and minutes between Greenwich Mean Time (also known as Coordinated Universal Time or UTC), and the current system time.
DST Adjustment
Adjustment for daylight saving time.
Automatically adjust for daylight saving changes
The system automatically adjusts the time based on daylight savings time for the time zone selected.
Note: Not all time zones allow DST. If you select this option for a time zone that does not allow DST, an error occurs.
Manually adjust for daylight saving changes
The system does not automatically adjust the time based on daylight savings time.

Select Time Option

Specify whether you want to manually set the system clock or use a local or public Network Time Protocol (NTP) server to automatically update the clock.

Manually configured system clock
Specifies that you want to manually set the system clock.
Synchronize system clock NTP server
Specifies that you want to automatically synchronize the system clock with a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server.

Date and Time

If you choose to manually set the system clock, enter the date and time.

Date (mm/dd/yyyy)
Specifies the date on your system.
Time (hh:mm:ss)
Specifies the time of the day on your system.

NTP Settings

If you choose to automatically synchronize the system clock with an NTP server, specify the host name or IP address of one or two NTP servers.

NTP server 1
Specifies the host name or IP address of a primary NTP server.
NTP server 2
Specifies the host name or IP address of a secondary NTP server. This NTP server is used if the primary NTP server is unavailable.
Note: Some clock changes require a restart to take effect. In particular, setting the date or time to an earlier date or time, or changing from manual configuration to NTP server configuration, require a restart. When these types of changes are made, you are prompted to restart the system.
