Chapter 2 TSP User Procedures

Setting the Time/Date on the TSP

Using “date” to set the time while the TSP is running is dangerous. It could ruin system files and interfere with the dialing algorithms.

The best way to set the time and date is:

1.Stop the TSP application (“stoptsp” using the Admin Terminal).

2.Use timeconfig to select the time zone. Also select the GMT flag.

3.Use hwclock to set the local time of the TSP in the hardware clock. Example:

hwclock --set --date="2/20/03 18:24:00" --utc

(note - those are double dashes)

4.Use hwclock to update the system clock: hwclock --hctosys

5.Reboot the TSP. On a reboot, the system time will be taken from the hard- ware clock.
