C HAPTER 12: ADVANCED ADMINISTRATION 165
Time/Date Configuration
CC-SG’s Time and Date stamps must be accurately maintained in order to provide credibility for
its device-management capabilities.
Important! This time is used when scheduling tasks in Task Manager⎯see
section Task Manager in Chapter 12: Advanced Administration. The time set
on the client may be different than the time set on CC-SG.
Only Administrators and ccroot users can synchronize Time and Date.
1. On the Setup menu, click Configuration Manager. When the Configuration Manager
screen appears, click on the Time/Date tab.
Figure 197 Configuration Manager Time/Date Screen
a. To set the date and time manually: To set the Date, click on the drop-down arrow to
select the Month, use the up/down arrows to select the Year, and click on the Day in the
calendar area. To set the Time, use the up/down arrows to set the Hour, Minutes, and
Seconds, and then click on the Time Zone drop-down arrow to select the time zone in
which you are operating CC-SG.
b. To set the date and time via NTP: Click on the Enable Network Time Protocol check
box at the bottom of the window and enter the IP addresses for both the Primary (NTP)
Server and the Secondary (NTP) Server.
Note: Network Time Protocol (NTP) is the protocol used to synchronize the attached computers’
date and time data with a referenced NTP server. When CC-SG is configured with NTP, it can
synchronize its clock time with the publicly available NTP reference server and maintain correct
and consistent time.
2. Click Update Configuration to apply the time and date changes to CC-SG.
3. Click Refresh in the upper-left portion of the window to see the new Server time
reflected on your client GUI as seen in the screen above.
4. Click Close to close the Configuration Manager screen.
5. On the Setup menu, click Restart CommandCenter.
Note: Changing the time zone is disabled in a cluster configuration.
