• -d — Sets the time in the string YYYYMMDDhhmmss.mmmmmmsoff, where:
• YYYY is the four digit year
• MM is the month
• DD is the day
•
hh is the hour
• mm is the minute
• ss is the second
• mmmmmm is the number of microseconds
• s is a + (plus) sign or a − (minus) sign, which indicates the sign of the offset.
• off is the offset in minutes.
NOTE: Theoff is the offset in minutes from GMT and must be in 15-minute increments. The
timezone is represented as an offset from GMT. The clock does not automatically adjust to daylight
savings time (for -d option).
•
-z <zone> — Sets the time zone by name or index, or lists possible time zones. For example, PST8PDT
(Western United States), 294 (Seoul), 344 (Sydney).
<zone> may be:
• ? lists the major timezone names or prefixes.
• <timezone> is the case-sensitive name of your timezone or the index listed in -z
<timezone_prefix>*.
• <timezone_prefix>* is a prefix of one or more timezones, followed by '*'.
NOTE: The timezone or daylight savings time is fully supported for -land -z options. To set the
timezone only (for example -z US/Central), do not specify the -l option.
• -l — Sets the local date and time in the string YYYYMMDDhhmmss where:
• YYYY is the year
• MM is the month
• DD is the day
• hh is the hour

Setting the time using the -l and -z options are recommended. This command format allows the CMC to
support local time zones. This command includes the ability to automatically adjust the CMC time to the local
Daylight Savings Time (DST).
