■ Time Display in Linux OS Environment

Difference in Time between the OS and the Hardware Clock

During OS operation in a Linux environment, the software clock on the OS, rather than the hardware

clock in the server, is used to display the time.

This may cause a difference in time between the OS and the hardware clock.

When you want to see the accurate time on the OS, it is recommended to use the NTP service to

periodically correct the time displayed on the OS.

Changing the Time Settings for the OS and Hardware Clock

In a Linux environment, the time displayed on the OS (the software clock value on the OS) is written to

the hardware clock in the server when the OS is shut down.

• Procedure for prohibiting the time on the OS from being written to the hardware clock

When you do not want the time on the OS to be written to the hardware clock at an OS shutdown,

comment the following line out in /etc/rc0.d/S01halt.

runcmd $"Syncing hardware clock to system time" /sbin/hwclock $CLOCKFLAGS


#runcmd $"Syncing hardware clock to system time" /sbin/hwclock $CLOCKFLAGS

• Procedure for reflecting the hardware clock value to the time on the OS

To reflect the hardware clock value to the software clock value on the OS, run the following

command.

>hwclock --hctosys
