HP Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch for HP BladeSystem p-Class - Manual (Page 24)

24 Performing basic configuration tasks
To set the time zone:
1. Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2. Issue the
tstimezone
command as follows:
tstimezone [houroffset [, minuteoffset]]
• For Pacific Standard Time enter
tsTimeZone -8,0
• For Central Standard Time enter
tsTimeZone -6,0
• For Eastern Standard Time enter
tsTimeZone -5,0
The default time zone for switches is Universal Time Conversion (UTC), which is 8 hours ahead of
(later than) Pacific Standard Time (PST). For additional time zone conversions, see Table 3 .
The parameters do not apply if the time zone of the switch has already been changed from the default
(8 hours ahead of PST).
Refer to the
tstimezone
command in the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 4.x command reference
guide for more detailed information about the command parameters.
3. Repeat the procedure on all switches for which the Time Zone needs to be set. This needs to be done
only once, because the value is written to nonvolatile memory.
For U.S. time zones, use Table 3 to determine the correct parameter for the
tstimezone
command.
