Manage the Date and Time

An accurate date and time in the DMM assures accuracy for events listed in the System Log and
for traps and alarms sent to the system administrator, as well as for all events listed in event logs
for individual modules within the system. The date and time for the DMM overrides any date and
time set in another module in the domain.

You can choose either of two methods for setting the date and time, depending on your access to
an external network and your need for accuracy.

• For accuracy within a large network, you can set up the DMM to synchronize the system date

and time to an SNTP server. The SNTP date and time overrides the date and time set
anywhere else in the system. When the DMM contacts the SNTP server to synchronize the
time, the event appears in the System Log, whether or not the SNTP server responds.

• If you choose to not use SNTP to maintain the date and time, or do not have access to the

Internet and an SNTP server, you can set it directly at the DMM. In any case, the date and
time for the DMM overrides any date and time set in another module in the domain.

To set up synchronization with SNTP, follow these steps:

1. At the Domain Management Module menu, type

10

, "SNTP Configuration" and press

<Enter>.

2. At the SNTP Client Configuration screen, type the number for a parameter and press

<Enter>, then follow the prompts on the screen.

• Sntp Client UTP Offset (hours): Set the difference, in hours, between this DMM and

Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which is similar to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT);
Range is -12 to 12

• Sntp Client Sync Interval (minutes): Set how often, in minutes, that the DMM tries to

synchronize its time to the SNTP server; Range is 0 (attempt to synchronize at DMM bootup,
only) to 1440 (once daily)
