Setting the date and time

The Remote Supervisor Adapter II contains its own real-time clock to time stamp all events that are logged in the event log. Alerts that are sent by e-mail, LAN, and SNMP use the real-time clock setting to time stamp the alerts. The clock settings support Greenwich mean time (GMT) offsets and daylight saving time (DST) for added ease-of-use for administrators who are managing systems remotely over different time zones. You can remotely access the event log even if the server is turned off or disabled.This facilitates immediate problem determination and resolution.

6.In the GMT offset field, type the number that specifies the offset, in hours, from Greenwich mean time (GMT), corresponding to the time zone where the server is located.
